Ep.22 Mila Alexander - Mizog Art Podcast Jan 28, 2019

Show notes

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Mila Alexander.

Mila was born in Kazakhstan to Russian parents and came to the UK around 15 years ago [from time of recording].

As a result of several years spent working in couture fashion, her super-realist portraits could be the cover of a fashion magazine. She spends a massive amount of time in her studio, as a result the evolution of her style is a little faster than most.

Mila has recently been taken on by Maddox Gallery, so we could well be seeing a lot more of her in the near future

Ep.20: Dave Buonaguidi - Mizog Art Podcast Jan 07, 2019

Show notes

Dave Buonaguidi had literally decided to become a screen-printer overnight. He left his job, in advertising on a Friday, went on a one-day screen-printing course at Print Club London on the Saturday and fell in love with the rapid creative process that day.

Dave is best known for laying bold text over found maps, manuscripts and documents. When one of the UK’s largest Estate Agents started using adverts very similar the Dave’s recent work, Dave responded with a highly amusing barrage of ‘fake’ ad’s in the guise of those used by the Estate Agents. Whilst now running his own successful advertising agency Dave still finds the time to fulfil commissions and create his own body of work.
