So we’ve done a couple of post about this night… It was about two weeks ago that I hit up this gallery. Street Legal was a show which featured Koffie, Retna, The Mac and Mear One and I can’t leave out my boy Motion who showed me around for a bit.

The 17ft statue was the main attraction done by Mear One. The symbolism behind this was how death can become life. This piece took Mear 3 weeks straight day in and day out with very little sleep in between.

Kofie’s pieces at this show were purely amazing, just seeing how much detail went into each and every one of them. Shit is BAAWWWSSEE!

Mear really knows how to use different shades of the same color to make it stand out.

Taking a closer look in the intricate works of Kofie’s pieces.

No need for explanations when it comes to Retna’s paintings…

You can ask any artist about painting faces and they’ll all tell you that it’s by far the hardest thing to do, but El Mac makes it look so easy.

Split Personalities???

Take a look at the G.I JOE taking a prisoner.

People were getting a little tipsy off the free vodka tonics and wine.

The gallery itself was a little small but the turnout was big. It was nice seeing the younger crowd enjoying the works of some of the top artists in the industry. I met a lot of cool people at this show and it was nothing but good vibes.
