Print Club Loves // Doll House
Print Club artist Hattie Stewart launched her premiere solo exhibition last night at KK Outlet in Hoxton Square.
‘Doll House’ presents a myriad of brand new work – a kaleidoscopic illustrative burst of customised leather jackets, lenticular and hologram artworks, neon signage not to mention a bona fide dolls house that’s custom painted amidst fantasy settings!
Upon arrival, we were quite unsure if we would even get in! It seemed everyone in East London was there and by our 7.30pm arrival (only a half hour after the doors opened) there was not a drop of beer left on the bar!
There were 3 mini film crews, photographers and fans of Hattie’s vivid and uber cheeky signature style filling the venue wall to wall!
‘Also on show are Hattie’s trademark doodle-bombings, many previously unseen. Created by her drawing directly atop an array of renowned magazine’s front covers. Conceived in 2011, it’s an ongoing project series that explores the concept of breathing new life into old ideologies.’
Doodled magazines have included Playboy, Dazed & Confused, Paper, The Gentlewoman, Rolling Stone, The Face and NME to name but just a few. The end result is unequivocally bold, colourful and attention-grabbingly flirtatious. So much so that Playboy gave their official thumbs up.
Check out her feature in i – D Magazine – ‘drawing the line between satire and homage hattie stewart’s doll house.’
It continues that nothing is safe from Hattie’s witty and explosive doodle – bombs! and for that… we are eternally grateful!
