The lowbrow pop art of Vinnie Nylon

Vinnie Nylon attended Suffolk College of art and design as well as the Brighton College of technology in the 90's where he began to branch out onto graphic design for the world of skateboarding, clothing and record companies. His visual language is built upon years of exposure to the wacky world of post war advertising, candy packaging, cartoons, sign writing, graffiti and produt design. "A place where all the collections and obsessions of my life collide"

Viwers will find crows sat on top of glass vases or perhaps a giant manicule morphing into a trumpet, pouring out notes of cartoon soda pop drips! 1050's housewives and admen draw your attention to the wonders of consumerism... "Luxury SHE desires at a price HE can afford" The underlying message often taken way out of context and given a savage twist in this visual soup. One mermaid like creature battles with her own hand spraying insecticide as she is invaded by bugs and creepy crawlies in the screen print "Death by aerosol" All of the candy coloured joy of this imagery is served up with a dose of wit and irony, leading us to the conclusion that things are rarely as the first appear.
