MAB GRAVES
ATOMIC CANDY COSMONAUTS
solo exhibition
April 1st - 30th, 2016
Arch Enemy Arts is proud to present: Atomic Candy Cosmonauts, the brand new solo exhibition from renowned contemporary pop-surrealist artist and illustrator Mab Graves.
“I have always had a deep passion for Science and all things 60’s Retro Space - so I’knew that I wanted to paint an Astro Girl series one day. When I started the initial planning for my Atomic Candy Cosmonauts I decided that instead of painting my own versions of classic pulp kitsch, I would do a blending of real Science with nostalgic Sci Fi elements. I brought along some of my core characters like Farrah the pink fur girl and the crabby Caturn kitties as well as a brand new cast of Waifs and Petulant Planets for this adventure. I hope you enjoy the result – welcome to my Atomic Candy Cosmonauts!” - Mab Graves
The new collection includes nearly 30 new original works, many of which bring back familiar faces and beloved characters from Mab’s ever-expanding universe as they set off on galactic adventures to seek out new and unique kingdoms of life and discover the secrets of the cosmos.
