Now, wrapping Christmas gifts is hard. It's a mess of tape and crumpling that's just too stressful to handle, and consequently it gets left until the very last minute. If that's a scenario that sounds familiar to you, Glacéau Vitaminwater might just have the answer to all your needs, with their latest shinebright project, the 'Wrapping Gallery' pop-up space in London's Soho.
The space is being hosted by infamous Bristol-native-now-London-based artist and UK graffiti OG Inkie, and will feature 10 emerging artists, who will each paint, illustrate, screenprint, and stencil rolls of wrapping paper that can then be used to wrap your gifts in. That's way better than badly-wrapped gifts in shop-bought paper, right? Throughout the pop-up's short life, there will also be opportunities to win framed and signed pieces of work from five of the artists involved.
We got some exclusive images from the opening day of the pop-up space, and the paper looks incredible. Check out the images below, and head over to the space today or tomorrow to Lynnie Zulu painting live, and tomorrow to see Lucy Vigrass and Chrissie Macdonald printing the paper with stencils and wooden blocks, and Jack Hudson painting and rubber stamping the paper live.
