Stolen Space Gallery is pleased to present Whirlwind Of Time, a series of new works by the UK based artist duo Kai & Sunny. It will be their 4th solo exhibition at the gallery and their first show in London since 2013 after solo shows in New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles. In conjunction with the exhibition, the artists will release a new print edition, available for purchase at the opening reception.
Kai & Sunny images depict stylised imagery of nature, reducing natural forms to geometric patterns. However, this new series of linear work uses a more vibrant colour palette than previously shown.
Each original piece of work revolves around the passage of time. They explore the turning of tides, changing weather and time for reflection. This series balances the serene with the intense, the fragile with the stable and the peaceful with the chaotic. Drawing on the infinite complexity found in nature and metaphysical contemplation, the works magnify and stylize the things that are plainly visible to us but are often overlooked.
