Static

STATIC is the creative output of Tom & Craig who have been working together since 2006. Having met at art college, they began to share ideas and inspirations and then went on to complete BA degrees in Edinburgh and Liverpool. Initially returning to the North East of England to set-up their first studio, STATIC are now based in East London, where they continue to produce original work and screen printed editions in house and by hand. Their work combines elements of street art and fine art, merging a clean graphic style with stencils, spray paint, screen printing and paint brushes, to create unique pieces which have been exhibited on the streets of London as well as a number of International gallery spaces. 2010 saw their first solo exhibitions in the UK with ArtRepublic London and in Japan with Gallery Kawamatsu, Tokyo - and since then they have been developing and creating their 'layered glass' works, which deconstruct the stencil and screen printing processes they have been exploring since they began working together. These pieces were the focus of their second London solo show "Moments of Clarity" with Whisper Gallery earlier in 2012 and have also been exhibited in Singapore, Milan, Cyprus, Tokyo, Hiroshima and Osaka. They have recently returned from their second visit to Japan, where they were present for their second solo show with Gallery Kawamatsu in Tokyo, as well as shows in Osaka and Hiroshima where they completed a number of commissions and 'live' paint performances. welikestatic.com is the primary source for news and releases from the duo, but their work can also be found in galleries across the UK, USA, Dubai, Singapore, Japan and Australia.
