As Seen in

Weird place to see Cleatis-Preston turn upl

As seen on TV3 News we have an anonymous person wearing the "Internet Gangsterz" tee byAskew, he is seen here handing out Origin of Species books with a forward by Ray Comfort at a Richard Dawkins Lecture. It's a little weird considering the blasphemous nature of some of the Cleatis-Preston artists. It's cool to see random places where Cleatis-Preston can turn up.

Cleatis-Preston Artist: Peap Tarr

Here's a link to an article about Peap we stumbled across over here at Unknowncolors.com. Peap who is now living in Thailand has two amazing new pieces in our upcoming Cleatis-Preston collection.

Peap Tarr (New Zealand)

Known primarily for his use of bold black ink and paints on a blank white medium including canvas and walls, his art exists in a world where lightness and darkness battle, yet coexist in the same breath to balance each other and contrast against each other.

It represents the ups and downs of life, the yin and the yang, the ongoing war that ends up being waged on canvas or whatever medium his work lies on.

Peap over the years has received international attention via the media press including Magazines such as Hi Fructose issue 7, Computer Arts China, Faesthetic magazine issue 9 and 11, Clouded Thoughts (Australia), Acclaim Magazine, North and South (NZ current affairs magazine) and various other local magazines in New Zealand.

Peap has also appeared in Qantas Media award winning New Zealand art show “The Gravy” which features him in Series 3, Episode 2. Another recent documentary that Peap has been involved with and one of great significance to his birth place of New Zealand is the project called Canvassing The Treaty which is bringing together of six artists from diverse backgrounds, pairing them up, educating them about the Treaty of Waitangi, and watching dawning realizations for some as they produce equally diverse works of art.

Having exhibited in Los Angeles USA, Auckland, New Zealand and Sydney Australia Peap has now set his sights on the whole Asian region particularly the South East Asian region to really take his art and crew to new heights on grand creative level and to make new and exciting projects happen “ I am always looking forward to making new and exciting projects happen on the creative level every day and to follow through with my goals and ambitions.

Peep is part of Angry Woebots crew Army of Snipers which has a list of crew members around the world who travel like an army of snipers only their weapon is paintbrushes and spray paint and their mission is to bring their unique graffiti and art to the world

Peap is also in LA Graffiti crew ICR
