My First Art Show! "the Lost Myth Of Androgyny"

I’m going to exhibit my work for the very first time on July 7th at The Art Academy's Graduate Show in London and i am sooooo excited! I've only started painting 2 years ago and I am basically self-taught. I don't mean to show off or anything, in fact I've started a school last january and I'm loving it :) It's not easy (nothing comes easy living in London and wanting to be an artist) but I don't like the easy ride either.

The series of paintings and drawings is titled "The Lost Myth of Androgyny"so the main focus will be androgyny, gender and everyone's transition and anxiety during the journey towards self acceptance. I have researche a lot into gender dysphoria, Foucault's theories and anciet myths.

I'm really passionate about art and after trying out different mediums (especially photography), painting is the one I want to keep pursuing and it's giving me a kind of creative freedom that I've never felt before. I tend to be quite figurative and surreal in my paintings and I love artists like Frida Kahlo, Caravaggio, Magritte and Del Kathryn Barton

I do really want to exhibit my work in the way I've always dreamed of and in order to achieve this, I’ve just launched a Kickstarter campaign http://kck.st/28AbayO

If you like what I do and you have a minute in this restless social media society, please, please and please share this project with your friends and art lovers and help me achieve my goal. Small things like a mention, word of mouth or even £1 can get as many people as I can on board. Also, I will donate 10% to gendertrust.org.uk should the campaign be successful!

The show will be held from July 7th-10th and of course you are invited! Enjoy my art and have a look at more on www.fabioesposito.co.uk or on Instagram @fabio__esp

Love,

Fabio
