Carbon & Chemicals was a mini arts 'tour' that we put on by Xynthetic - an arts collective, touring around 3 galleries in the UK (Middlesbrough, Nottingham & Bristol), at the start of 2008.
The show consisted of hand-painted skateboards, screenprints & a Super8 film accompanied by lomo photography documenting the whole process.
The artwork was produced by the xyn family members WASTE, Mr Jago, Klingatron, Richt, Danny Wainwright, Pone & JamFactory, with the photography by Laura Thorne, Lee Page, David Canning and the whole xyn fam.
This film, filmed & edited by Jonny Clooney aka M4KINOV is a retrospective of the whole show, featuring our work at the Middlesbrough & Nottingham galleries… Enjoy!
