My friend OVERCONSUME is in a show at Ad Hoc Gallery Feb. 20th, celebrating the release of photographer Martha Cooper’s book.

Opening Reception: Friday, February 20th, 7-10pm

Sticker Show on view for 2 more days: Sat Feb 21st, Sun Feb 22nd (1-8pm each day)

Postal stickers have long been a preferred substrate used by street artists to get up. Of course, because stickers from the US Postal Service, UPS, DHL and FedEx are so readily available, most of these stickers get lost in the fray, especially if you don’t know what you’re looking for.

That’s where graffiti photography legend Martha Cooper comes in. Shooting the origins of hip-hop and graffiti cultures since the late 1970s in New York City, and later all over the world, Cooper’s well-trained eyes know how to recognize deft sticker art. Here then is a collection of more than 200 photographs of some of Cooper’s favorite handmade postal stickers from around the world, done by some of the scene’s better-known artists and the anonymous.

Cooper has compiled a collection of photographs shot in numerous cities, including New York City, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Tokyo, Berlin and Amsterdam, featuring postal-sticker art created by FAUST, STAIN, C.DAMAGE, GET2, COSBE and many more.

Going Postal documents how an old-school method has burgeoned into another rich facet of the world’s graffiti cultures.

This solo showing, In The Midst of Things, will present all of the different styles or approaches to my composite work.

Show opens at Unison Gallery November 9th, reception from 4-6pm.
On exhibit through December 7th.

“Nature is my inspiration. In my work I strive to bring the apparent into view and work with a degree of improvisation, rendering the image as if it is balancing in between moments.”
