Acesartworld, who appears to have recently changed his moniker to Ace has recently taken a significant change in direction in his work towards painting Transformer-influenced masks. Having painted several of these in Bristol this year, I don’t think he needs to sign them any more as they are quite unique.

I think that this piece speaks of a tidy and regimented mind, paying attention to the symmetry and detail set on a buffed wall, creating clarity – there is no ambiguity or subtlety here – what you see is what you get. These mask pieces have created quite a nice ‘collectable’ series, and I fully expect to see more as the summer unfolds.
