Compton Art Gallery proudly presents "Invaders" - an art show by internationally renowned French graffiti artist CEET. Compton Art Gallery aims to bring more artistry elements to the picturesque Discovery Bay community, and to provide a platform to support developing artists with great potential.
CEET’s humanized chicken portray emotions and personalities and through his colourful humorous approach criticizes modern society as bringing up ‘followers’, afraid to stand out as an individuals and to ‘chicken-out’!
When CEET landed in China he started scribbling visual images as a way of initial form of communication and these initial sketches soon evolved to means of experience and he made the connection between the references of his experience of the densely populated China to the feeling being one of the chickens in the masses.
A prolific artist, CEET has experimented with different media to achieve his characteristic level of quality, using acrylic and oil paint, as well as pens, markers, metal paints and sprays more familiar to street artists. The result is a richly textured and saturated surface and successfully evokes emotions of endearment and fun in his vibrant canvases.
CEET is a regular artist-in-residence at the vast paradisiacal art estate in Marrakech called ‘Jardin Rouge’, and has exhibited in galleries in countries spanning Asia including Hong Kong, Indonesia, Singapore, Taiwan, China, as well as France, Holland, Belgium, Austria and Morocco.
