Twoone, dream a little dream of me.

We had an exhibition of Two one's last year at our St Kilda Property. He is amazing. One of our staffers is in the process of buying her first piece of original art. ( It's the dreamscape shown above.) If you don't own any either Two one might be a great place to start. He is a really beautiful guy (along with the obvious talent).

A little about him:

Twoone was born in Yokohama, Japan in 1985.

Drawing and crafting have been a part of his life for as long as he can remember. He gained an early interest in graffiti specifically while photographing a two-kilometre stretch of wall in his hometown. Twoone moved to Melbourne at the age of 18 and quickly became a prominent part of the local street art scene.

One of Twoone’s first Australian shows was the No Comply skateboard exhibition in 2003. The success of No Comply lead him to a consistent involvement in group shows and ongoing commissions, murals and live paintings.

In 2004, in order to expand his skill set, Twoone began Visual Art (New Media) at Swinburne University. He graduated in 2006.

Perhaps Twoone’s biggest event to date is his ‘One Thousand Cans’ show held in 2008. This show directed him to think more about concept and installation than just painting alone.

Next he will have a solo show of varied works and further expose his works to a broad audience with a tour through Australia and Asia in 2009/10.
