London-based artist and illustrator Ben Rider better known to some by his street name Zombiesqueegee has been recently hitting the streets of East London with a vibrant series of layered hand-screen printed posters.
Artist Ben Rider's Shoreditch Street Art
—
According to Rider, his work is built up from a dense hybrid of drawings, collaged imagery, and multi-layered colours'. He is also a big fan of the offsets, drips, and fades to create an authentic distressed aesthetic'. His love of screen printing and fluorescent inks is evident in both his gallery pieces and the striking wheat-pasted street artworks.
Ben Rider is also part of print posse Fatherless — a collaborative print collective from the US & UK, consisting of artists Jarrod Hennis, Javier Jimenez, Greg Lang, Dave Menard, and Rider.
The collective was in the UK earlier this year for an exhibition of their print works at Stour Space, in Hackney Wick. Titled 'Alternative Facts', the show featured many of the collectives' collaborative screen printed works.
