Notes


A true lover of skateboard culture, Pure Evil's education took him from Wales, London and then onto California where his eye was caught by street artists Twist (a.k.a Barry McGee) and Reminisce (a.k.a Ruby Rose Neri). 

It was upon his return to London in 2000 that he hit the ground running and after a stint working at Banksy's Santas Ghetto Guerrilla retail show, he started stencilling and spraying his signature bunny tag around London.

Now an owner of his own gallery in Shoreditch, Pure Evil has created a space for himself and his fellow artists, “a Mecca for Independent artists
.” - Pure Evil.
