Splif Bantom of Scotland Yard – Crime scene

Splif Bantom’s genius spills over in his latest image of a crime scene exactly one year after the crime was committed. Splif often prefers not to mention the crimes that were committed, but in this case he has mentioned that the scene is in Carlinhgy Castle near Aberdeen. Basic research tells us that it is the scene of the hushed up Theft of the Scottish Crown Jewels, which Bantom solved using a powerful pair of binoculars and the offer of a cheese sandwich. Full details have never come out, but this image spectacularly shows how Splif’s success allows normal castle life to continue.

World Peace thru Abstract Art –

”This piece clearly speaks for itself, its strong anti-war message reverberating about the canvas like a rubber bullet fired in a greenhouse made of reinforced glass. What more can be added to the pseudo orange that assaults the eyes, the strip of blue that represents, without doubt, the desire for a post-war sky filled not with drones and helicopters raining down missiles, but rather a cloudless sky of hope.
Sold under the WPtAA name, this is clearly a Mo Cohen work, dripping with anger for the loss of peace in so many parts of the world. This is one of the most powerful pieces made by a war artist, and no doubt it will do its bit to bring an end to war and help turn army bases into art galleries.”

Rishi Sunak – the Leaving Downing Street album

”The latest album cover from Carbine is a classic of the fine art album cover genre, a genre that he is swiftly making his own. With deliberate reference to covers by Nirvana, Slippery Hugh and The Swimming Pool Duo, Carbine has created a piece that sings with both political intrigue and Mediterranean holiday vibes. Not many artists can combine such diverse influences with such panache and sheer excitement but Carbine manages to sideswipe the viewer with his left field extravaganza.

Everyone who sees the cover is thrown into a pool of not just water, but realpolitik. Whose feet can we see, we ask, why are there only three feet? Has there been a terrible disaster? Yes – here Carbine cleverly refers obliquely to the failure of the Sunak government. But he does it with joy, with effervescence, with a delight in the political status quo and a desire for everyone to put their feet metaphorically in a pool – though the font of the album’s name makes it clear he believes this is illusory.”

Binoto: New bin photo available now

“A delightful new photo has been release by Oboe Ngua from her seminal series “All the Bins in the World.” Unlike many in the bin series these includes shadowy figures, one on their phone, the other staring intently at the bin. We feel that we are witnessing a bin-based crime, that society in a microcosm is being shown to us.

In the distance people walk away, oblivious to what is happening behind them. Suddenly we feel the emptiness, the loneliness of contemporary living.

Oboe shows us a bin overflowing, a bin that represents perhaps the artist’s mind, or more likely a way marker on the journey we all face to truth from adversity. Onwards, she seems to say, encouraging us in our individual ways to either reach out and grab the rubbish in our life, or alternatively walk on past, whilst phoning the council to pick up the pieces.”
