Cloak & Dagger
by Other Gallery Beijing
Location: Other Gallery Beijing
Artist(s): Kid Acne
Date: 22 Dec 2011 - 29 Jan 2012

Welcome to Stabby Woman's world, they are vigorous and charming tribeswoman in modern metropolis. Stabby Woman with mask, cloak and dagger was created and completed by versatile English artist Kid Acne in 2002. Now living in Sheffield, Kid Acne began painting graffiti at the age of twelve and then set foot in varies kinds of art such as painting, installation, hip-pop, underground fanzines, cartoon and video. Besides, he was invited to cooperate with world's leading brands. With extraordinary imagination, the artist will present Stabby Woman's world through graffiti, painting, installation and video in this exhibition.

The exhibition title "Cloak & Dagger" is translated word for word in order to give iconic outline of Stabby Woman. Meanwhile, "Cloak & Dagger" is a western proverb which refers to situation evolved with conspiracy, secret, espionage or mystery. In Kid Acne's opinion this is also a witty metaphor toward art creating - do it secretly and keep distance from the art creation.
