I know practically nothing about Jimzina other than that loads of her(?) pasteups appeared on virtually every piece of street furniture at Upfest this year. This is the first of many posts of her work, due to her prolific few days in Bristol.
Jimzina, Upfest, Bristol, July 2017I can only think that Jimzina prepared dozens of wheatpastes prior to Upfest, and spent an evening or two having a lot of fun pasting them up.
Jimzina, Upfest, Bristol, July 2017Most of Jimzina’s work seems to be drawn onto menus and other similar posters and is instantly recognisable from other wheatpasters. As far as I can make out, all the subjects of the pieces are young women striking slightly naughty poses…eye catching certainly.
Jimzina, Upfest, Bristol, July 2017There will be more to follow, amnd in the mean time I’ll try to find out more about this mysterious artist.
I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

These are great – and I love that the artist prepared so many different pieces. So often I’ll see a bunch of wheatpastes by one artist, but they will be identical. I can’t see the value if posting the same thing over and over again, especially when it’s concentrated in one neighborhood.

I agree. There were one or two duplicates, but most were different. Lots more to come.

Really like them. Naughty is a good description–but nice.
