Lance de los Reyes

Lance de los Reyes might be best known for his epic-scale billboard graffiti; however, he is also an incredibly prolific visual artist who creates drawings and paintings that reflect his personal visions of the universe and world around him. Incorporating symbols, both recognizable and abstracted, with shapes and shifting forms; he conjures a realm that exudes familiarity while at the same time remaining blurred and magical.

Builder 33 is de los Reyes first show with Shrine. The exhibition focuses on a new series of graphite drawings set against a single large canvas that will anchor the show. Stone-like forms, roughly sketched shapes, shadows and etched markings imbued with a decisive, yet free, hand connect us to de los Reyes's secret world- a raw and defined space that demands our attention.
