KYLE BRIGHTSIDE space, it is within this quiet rift that BLO’s


paintings breathe. He uses creativity as a
device to question, invert or pervert aspects

SMUG of the hand, looseness of line, as well as


composition and materials that directly draw
from traditional graffiti. His current street
work has become more figurative, drawing
