Aaron Young

Young’s artistic techniques and the creation of his pieces are as much part of the exhibition as the final output; his work is heavily centred around collaboration, and Young is known to approach various subcultures (bikers, skaters, tattoo artists) with whom he works alongside. 
 

The Young and The Driftless, a ‘painting’ made on a panel of safety glass surrounding the gallery, is one of Young’s most revered works – it was created by a biker speeding around the room; the floor was coated in spray glue and the rubber shavings produced by the friction of the bike tyre were subsequently collected by this glue – the final image was a self-portrait of the artist.
