I have only once before seen work by Apparan and that was on a collaborative gate piece at Upfest last year with Jelly. Finding this piece on a work trip to London was therefore a real treat. The portrait is really beautifully done, although the hair looks a little more abstract than the rest of the portrait.

There is a lot of depth in the piece, and the shadows around the lady’s neck are very nicely painted. I also really like the leaf print dress, and the folds in the material. There is something very summery about the piece, augmented by the verdant mini-meadow in front of it. Wonderful work from Apparan.

The wall that just keeps on giving . . .

Went there last Thursday but couldn’t go inside as there was a private do for a school group going on. Despite visiting the Westfield quite a few times previously I had no idea all that was there until you started posting stuff. Some of the writing is well weathered so it’s obviously been there a while.

There isn’t so much to see on the inside. Most of the good stuff is on the outside. Glad you found it.

You may have seen Apparan at Upfest in 2018 and she’s done Cheltenham a few times as well. I’ve seen her stuff on previous London visits. I think I got some paste-ups of hers waiting to be posted sometime in the distant future
