Bristol-based digital artist Lewis Osborne is best known for his hypnotic, cartoonish animations. His work is showcased as a digital art experience transporting visitors into another world, inhabited by uncanny characters who interact with surreal, geometric environments, each inspired by the daily toils of life. At face value the work is fun, mesmerising and playful but take a closer look and you’ll see a wry wink and a nod to the bizarre mundanity of the day to day. One of Lewis’ signature works, ‘Chasing happiness’, shows a sad character trying to chase ‘happiness’ on an infinite staircase. ‘Drown out the thoughts’ shows the artist’s love for music and how it is used as a coping mechanism, depicting his colourful yet sarcastic style.
Cem Hasimi became the first contemporary artist to spotlight their art within Frameless’ fifth ‘Blank Canvas’ gallery when his show opened on 4th August. His residency runs throughout August 2023 with a collection of his captivating works, featured on three floor-to-ceiling walls in a 20-minute show. With roots in Turkey and now based in London, Cem’s art is driven by his personal experiences, emotions and observations, aiming to inspire joy and ignite curiosity. Notably, his acclaimed piece “the Hole” made a significant impact as it was recently projected onto Times Square in collaboration with Artcrush Gallery.
