The work of MAp-MAp is the underhanded creations of Matthew Plater. A UK artist originating from the city of Leicester he flips around the world of many traditonal & digital mediums to push out any ideas he mulls over. Those ideas mainly come from a curiosity for the visually appealing and skin deep oddity in the characters and places he sees on his travel. With all knowledge being twisted by his vibrantly wasted youth spent on Saturday cartoon mornings & after school SNES marathons all edited by a young teen life spent in the woodls & farmland of Derbyshire. 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.
