POW EVOL/GROUP SHOW OPENING


We managed to make it to POW for the non VIP private opening on Thursday, (after being made to queue in the rain by over zealous security guards, to get into a less than full gallery) I was more than impressed by the attention to detail that went into the Evol stencil work on cardboard, well worth a look if you can get down to east London before Christmas Eve. There are some more photos on my Facebook
