An event series that will challenge the way we think about the junctions between

the creative sectors and hold a mirror up to the London art, fashion and music

scenes.

This event in particular will have a rotation of art and music to commemorate the

release of Londrino Lopes’ new album entitled Triumph: The Elysées Way.

Triumph is a twelve track album which can be depicted as having a very

atmospheric sound. The influences of the sonics were derived from artists

such as The Weeknd, Kanye West, Coldplay, Tina Turner, Daft Punk and Tracy

Chapman.

The experimentation from the different influences has shown a distinct

growth in Londrino Lopes, not only as a songwriter/recording artist, but also

as a performer. The songs are more intimate to Londrino’s experiences and

conversational which can only be expressed as a perfect formula to enjoy the

music, whether via a live performance with his band or in the comfort of your

own suroundings.

Hannah Adamaszek injects some new talent and energy in to the street

art scene with her female portraits which bring a painterly style often found

in contemporary art to the street art scene. Earthy tones and harmonious

contours have earned Admaszek’s works a place on many an outside

space, from the unique Brandalism project to StreetFest and UpFest.

And her unique canvases offer a calm feminine approach and emotional-

ly-charged contribution to an art scene predominantly saturated by many a

male artist.

“I think a lot of urban art can be visually sharp – I’m not sure if this is due

to the male prevalence or part of its makeup but my work definitely brings

in a softer female touch with emotion being brought into a sometimes a

more aggressive world.”

Kristin Gaudio Endsley is an abstract artist whose work has quickly caught the

eye of critics and collectors alike. Her work has been showing consistently since

arriving in London in 2011. She was one of hundred emerging artists selected to

particpate in The Other Art Fair, and recently had her work published in British

Vogue.

Influenced by organic and manmade patterns and colors found in both internal

and external environments, her works ask the viewer to participate in interpre-

tation. This starts with most viewers’ first question regarding abstract art: What

am I looking at? Beyond the basics, viewers are also asked to contemplate more

existential questions: What’s inside? What’s outside? What’s intentional? What

happens by chance?

Raised near the rolling shores of Chesapeake Bay, Kristin’s perspective was

strongly shaped by the visual clash of industry and nature in and around the

bustling American port town of Baltimore. Descended from a long line of artists

and craftsmen, Kristin has a family history in highly tactile expressions of crea-

tivity. Her grandfather was a furniture maker; her mother is a mixed media artist.

Family influences in materials and craftsmanship helped fuel Kristin’s interest

in textiles— both natural and synthetic textures and patterns. As a result of this

interest, in addition to her fine arts work, Kristin obtained her Bachelor of Science

in Fashion Design at Virginia Tech.

Kristin is constantly working towards fresh ideas for new bodies of work and

continues to take on commissions for collectors worldwide. She currently lives

and works in East London. Kristin is an advocate of “shop local” which consists

of supporting local businesses and artists.

Zincstyles is a freelance artist and muralist working and living in London.

His work fuses together many of his interests, from his involvement in the

graffiti scene from a young age to pop imagery and American sensibilities.

His early work combined an interest in geometric abstraction with a

traditional graffiti style, creating interesting and intricate shapes and forms.

After graduating from Leeds University in 2011 with a BA Honours in

Contemporary Art, he developed an interest in classic portraiture and

his current focus is creating portraits which combine pointillism and vivid

colours to create a unique energy on both canvas and walls.

His work has featured at a number of UK and International festivals and

his distinct style continues to resonate with a growing audience.

Clients include Puma, Madtech Records and Meltwater News International.
