Nick Harvey, a Bristol-based street artist, opens his debut solo show in a pop up art space at 19-21, Gloucester Road from 7th-14th April.
The show explores the shared natures of humans and nocturnal animals living in the city.
Nick’s work evokes a primal experience in an urban environment, wild, city-dwelling creatures clash with an unpredictable human element. He draws on the unexpected parallel fate of urban animals and street artists: bound to be shy, secretive yet daring.
Growing up in London, Nick pursued his interest in street art whilst honing his technical skills studying Fine Art at university. Drawn to Bristol by its creative atmosphere, Nick’s work fast became a recognisable feature of areas such as Stokes Croft, St. Werburgh’s and the Bearpit.
Attempting to disrupt the grey uniform of our unanimated world, Nick offers something out of the ordinary, drawing our attention away from our everyday, mundane surroundings.
