EXPLOSIONS

I spent Monday working in the Golden Thread Gallery in Belfast
The wall painting is part of an exhibition of paint bombing called Splatter.
Quite simply, I paint the wall with a small workshop of teenagers and then Carlos, a spanish explosions expert paint bombs the room.
This is the gallery space before i started - its a big space to paint in a day.
Went for the easy route and used the explosion theme for the wall painting.


Above and below, The fire, smoke and pieces were painted by myself, with the teenagers working on the cloud of smoke in the middle, and one of them also decided to take over one end of one of the pieces.

Who am I to say no?


BOOM! Well it is an explosion!

Opening is this Saturday afternoon - get down and see Carlos do some crazy things with fireworks and paint!
