Viewing Remi Rough at the House of St Barnabas

Londoners needing their spirits lifted should make a beeline for the House of St Barnabas to see the work of Remi Rough. His colour-saturated, abstract compositions are just the tonic. The hypnotic choreography of line, geometry and colour in his work recalls late 1980’s ‘wildstyle’ graffiti and his own street art beginnings. In ‘What Colour Does For The Fragile Mind,’ some pieces spring forth from the walls of the members’ club, while other works on paper bring a sense of the sculptural to the flat page.

Remi’s joyous compositions are a balm to the weary soul, which will be warmed further still by the fact that proceeds from the exhibition will go towards The House of St Barnabas’ charity, working to empower those affected by homelessness. Art for the heart in more ways than one.
