The work of Beau LaBute (Welland, Canada. 1977) is about repetition, layering, obscuring, recombining. This becomes increasingly more evident in the pages of Night Mewves, through which pages the artist takes us for a ride into some of his newer, darker and looser drawings.
Beau doesn’t restrict himself to drawings, but sometimes incorporates stencils or printmaking, flash animation, collage and photography into some of his works. Beau has collaborated in the past with Paper Rad and Peter Thompson on joint projects and books, the latter he describes as “a nice way to bundle things up before moving on” being his most usual way of working.
