The show features original portraits in a combination of oil and aerosol, as well as charcoal drawings.Conor has described the themes behind the work as "a depiction of a lone figure swimming in a sea of abstract urban chaos. These pieces explore the transient aspect of graffiti, drawing parallels between these urban traces and human movement. The paintings embody two opposing elements - oil and aerosol, abstraction and representation, chaos and control, constantly see-sawing back and forth."

This autumn, acclaimed artist Antony Micallef will be bringing his own unique style of painting Lazarides gallery with his first UK solo show ‘It’s A Wonderful World’.Pieces in the show deal with the subject of portraiture in a dark and slightly twisted way: human forms are placed in artificial, unnatural environments that are influenced by the many guises of branding and popular culture. The paintings combine skilled brushwork with references to old masters and Japanese graphic design.Micallef’s work examines modern society’s dichotomous relationship with consumerism, examining how people maintain to despise multi-national brands, yet still allow themselves to be seduced by them. His works make extensive use of corporate logos and icons from popular culture, which lend a very special style to his paintings.
