Mr.Arteest's photostream

Arteest is a fusion of art, design, fashion and music.

Arteest expresses himself in many different ways, often using found objects and materials to draw, spray or paint onto. His artworks are just as likely to be found in the streets to collect or hanging on a gallery wall to observe. The world of Arteest is fed by his everyday experiences in the urban centres he explores across the world.

A central element to the world of Arteest are the family of characters he uses as a means of communicating feelings and thoughts on local and global issues. These characters are considered artworks in their own right, but will often creep into other works. To date there are: The Art Goblins - a satirical slant on the modern day fine art critic. Mr.Smileyman - an undercover agent employed by Arteest to seek and encourage smiles around the world. Mr.Armyman - Smileyman’s American twin, also on a mission - to harmonise the world and create so called ‘peace’ just like a true American soldier should do. And The Finger People - a misunderstood group of mixed urban beings, a reflection on our society and the ideals of a utopian world.

Thanks for listening, The Art Goblins
