Chainsaw & THE GIRL

Chainsaw & THE GIRL is a collaboration between artists BILLY CHAINSAW & GIRL SH*T: one that came together initially for their inaugural show MUSIC, SUBCULTURE & MAGICK held in the CONCLAVE Brighton basement exhibition space in October/November 2019.

Since then, they have continued to work together, with new works showing at Conclave as part of our 8th group show: Pieces of Eight (Here be Treasure!)

About MUSIC, SUBCULTURE & MAGICK:

The 2019 show explored their shared love of MUSIC, SUBCULTURE & MAGICK, and featured 46 mixed-media works on paper, and 4 larger mixed-media and paint on stretched canvas / mounted wood pieces. Every piece was worked on by both artists as the works were passed back and forth during their creation.

BILLY CHAINSAW artist statement: “In my early teens I developed an obsession with American comic books, masks, the movies, magick, and author William S. Burroughs… elements that repeatedly feature in my mixed-media, cut up pop art.” 

THE GIRL (aka GIRL SH*T) artist statement: “GIRL SH*T is informed by a love of subcultures, music, ’zines, gig posters, fashion, art, design and punk feminism.”
