2501 has traveled to Brasil to team up with the talented Ozmo for a 2 man exhibition to be held at the Tag Gallery in San Paolo. The show titled “Branco e Preto” (Black and White) will feature new paintings from each artist as well as 3 murals and kinetic sculptures. With a black and white palette and theme the artist set out to explore and contemplate sacred iconography. Symbols of alchemy and Buddhist themes are used to create a present body of work that engages these lost ancient traditions. We are looking forward to seeing the final images from the exhibition.
