David “RunDMB” Bishop is an English designer and illustrator renowned for his distinctive hand-drawn abstract graffiti style. A fine arts university graduate, he currently serves as a creative director at a UK design studio. His artistic influences stem from ’80s and ’90s hip-hop culture, the work of graffiti artist Futura 2000, cinema, art, and graffiti.  In the niche realm of custom vinyl and resin art toys, RunDMB has established himself as a veteran artist. His unique designs have garnered international recognition, featuring in collections worldwide. Beyond toys, he customizes trainers, skate decks, and various other mediums, occasionally releasing limited edition t-shirts and prints. The SHO was created and set up by Emily and Dan as an independent venue, a gallery and a shop. With a vision to bridge the gap between different art forms and open the spectrum of gallery expectations. It fuses together traditional art with contemporary digital design and illustration, fueling a gallery/outlet offering affordable exclusive art and design pieces. A place where local and upcoming artists as well as established international designers working in diverse mediums will be able to exhibit & sell their work in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
