£¥£G∆†O conceived 2009 in So Cal by play on words and reincarnated in the Bay Area in 2013. His artwork consists of mix media from recycled and found objects. £¥£G∆†O is influence by the cosmic energy of the Ying and Yang and he is striking to deliver this message on his latest show entitled DU∆LI†I£S. 
Don't Trip is a prolific artist and party machine. His first solo exhibition will be held August 23rd, 2014 at VISUAL in San Diego, California. Although the artist paints his iconic characters in various illegal "spots", this collection of work will focus mainly on canvas and mixed media works. The exhibition will consist of his classic bright orange characters and floating heads, sporting stoner smiles and peace signs. The title "No Worries" suggests the artists extreme positive mental attitude that he promotes and lives by on a daily basis. No worries is a mantra that symbolizes pure positivity, enthusiasm for life and celebrates the art of Don' Trip.

Matt Forderer will exhibit his new collage work @ VISUAL on Saturday June 14, 2014. His work combines plant and animal life along with fractal patterns, cellular forms and cosmic references. These combinations of images are fused together to recreate new environments that seem to be from an alien planet and a different reality all together. 
June 7, 2014, Illustrator, Nick McPherson will exhibit his creepy and quirky vintage family photographs which he has hand embellished with pen and ink. This combination of hand drawing and vintage photography creates a bizarre and humorous scenerio where creatures encroach upon and transform the old fashioned black and white photo's, presenting the viewer with a twisted utopia.
