'Bomit' presents "AKA", Also Known As - A Bandana Art Show.
"AKA" is a mixed media exhibition promoting the diversity and relevance of
urban art and the underground culture. The exhibition challenges artists to
speak out using an everyday symbol of disguise, rebellion and resistance -
the bandana- as their canvas.
"AKA" uses the bandana, a universal representation of concealment, as the
artists platform for an open dialogue on the everyday invasion by modern
technology, governmental control and a culture that pressures us to
assimilate, on our private spaces and means of protecting ourselves.
On show will be works by local Houston artists Abel, ack!, Christian Azul,
B~Kay, Adrian Landon,Brooks, CUTTHROAT, Death Head, Dual, Sara Eudy, Give
Up, Lisa Marie Godfrey, GONZO247, Christian Navarrete, Meat, Derek Shumate,
Verb,YAR! and worldwide street artists Shepard Fairey, Logan Hicks, Daryll
Peirce, Evil Design, Asbestos and others.
The exhibition will also feature Top DJs including a
performance by DJ Witnes and live Screen Printing by Billy Bishop of
