Nychos and his solo exhibition debut “IKON”

Nychos surprises us with new extraordinary exhibition in New York

This Saturday June 26, we attended to the solo exhibition of Nychos ‘IKON’ at Jonathan LeVine Gallery in New York City. The illustrator and street artist presented a series of artworks inspired on the 1980s icons and fictional characters.

The Austrian artist uses colorful cartoon-like characters that explore their skeletal structure. Making the audience see more through the core elements of the artworks, which are the flesh and bones. With the evolution of pop culture and the development of society, Nychos seeks to create awareness of the social-ecological crises by confronting the people to explore his pieces. That’s the case with the exhibition of Barbie doll whose face is melting into a cancerous drip. If you’re around Chelsea, we recommend you take a look at his solo show which will be open until July 23, 2016.
