Nick Walker is a deliciously rude Vandal


London’s Black Rat Press gallery presents V for Vandalism, Nick Walker’s largest solo exhibition to date.
This is the guy that as a young, cocky B-boy known as Ego, wandered into the Arnolfini Gallery Bristol, and walked out with a solid agreement to host a group graffiti show.
This elevated Nick from vandal (a recurring theme in his work to date) to artist, and created the opportunity for him to paint the films sets of movies ranging from Judge Dredd to Hackers, B-Money as well as Stanley Kubrick’s infamous Eyes Wide Shut. It was during this brief movement away from street art that Nick shed his infamous Ego tag, and re-emerged as Nick Walker the Apish Angel.
