Leporello
Inspired by the manic, mind-expanding, music festivals that take over this rain-soaked, mud-mired country each summer, artist Kyle Platts has conjured up a festival fitting of his toxic comic book madness. Platts (a.k.a. Megaskull) here brings a wild festival to hideous life. Smelly campers, drunken partiers and raging rockers – from the campsite, through the trance tent and onto the main stage. With 2-metres of fine-lined, fluorescent artwork on both sides, this giant Leporello is a whopping 4-metre long continuous drawing! The ideal gift for comic fans, art lovers and music enthusiasts.
Kyle is a freelance illustrator who grew up in Sheffield, studied Illustration at Camberwell College of Art and now lives and works in London. He is influenced by anthropology, hot rods, nature, bad skin and Psychedelia. He mostly works with fine nib Rotring pens, but also pencils, paint and digital media.
