WHAM is a forceful collision of works on paper that resound with pop aesthetic. Incorporating comic images, everyday themes and advertisements, the WHAM prints, drawings and paintings sizzle with emotional subject matter that is often undercut by detached technique. Whether parody or social commentary, the resulting combination of flippant and sincere provocation strikes a powerful impact.
