Edition 5 Richi Rich keeps toilet paper in his vault. JAY-C – the pseudonym of this innovative young artist known for his subversive use of familiar figures and symbols. Using a distinct and fine British sense of humour,
he addresses stereotypes of modern society and his work, both playful and profound, stimulates us to question conventional social conceptions. JAY-C is a barometer responding to the world around us. Having had his first solo exhibition in 2018, in the same year he did a collaboration with BoConcept on their iconic Imola chair...

"Nestcafe Society" and Corporate Ideals A striking painting by Diego Tirigall prompts deep thoughts about the relationship between appearances and reality. The painting features a rough sketch of a well-known instant coffee brand logo with words "N3stcafe Society" beneath it.
