Previous works and World Cup 2010

So... who expected that eh? I'm sure England will bounce back aganist Algeria and Slovenia, only God can help them if they don't.
Here's some of Nathan's previous work, as you can see this is before ramification of his style, and is more colourful then his more recent works, showing his youthful skill and enigma. Several pieces are from his 'P.I.G' series of comic strips... and there's no doubting the analogy represented here..

Brick Lane and SA

Brick Lane... the epi-centre of London's culture bloc, a renegade spectical of active politicisim and creative rendition. Ben Eine, D*Face and even the ever popular Banksy have works displayed at, what is reffered to as the locals as 'Banglatown', this corner of east London. Above are a few favoured images from the famous street.

Mediums and beyond

Trudging through other blogs today to find out what inspire other street artists. Working on different mediums is something I encountered, from vans, high roof top walls and commonly seen subversive spots. This is a big part of AfterLives, re-cylcing and re-using old, beat up mediums, and giving them after life.

Nathan's work is avaiable on boards, vinyls, t-shirts and even old timey clocks... even you bedroom wall if you like.. like I did

Nathan in action

A few shots of Nathan in action... he was quite unfortunate once, but the less said about that the better.

Below are a few of his pieces dotted around London, from Holborn to Brick Lane

Introducing... Nathan Bowen

Nathan Bowen, aged 23, is a street artist from South East London. His most popular works are included in his 'AfterLives' series, portraying demons as a backdrop for pieces relating to political activitism and avant-garde.

Born in Catford, South East London, Nathan has been inspired from a young age to create his own inspired drawing and paintings, often being quoted as saying 'I don't look to others for inspiration, I draw it from my head, and whatever comes out, comes out'.
After graduating with honours from Central St. Martins College of Art and Design in London, Nathan has put about himself creating pieces in London's culture block of East London, creating pieces that can be seen as political and avant-garde, and seems to be the only artist in London using marker pens as opposed to the paint or spray cans to convey his message.

Unlike many other street artists, Nathan walks alone, and often operates during the day under the guise of a high-vis jacket to avoid the possiblity of confrentation from law enforcement.

As well as being a talented artist, Nathan is also a part of hip-hop collective Mekred 5.4, of whom he has been a member for the past 3 years, and are currently working on their 3rd indie album.

After already featuring on a number of blogs and forums on the Internet, this is the first blog completely dedicated to Nathan's work and activites.
