Art Nathan James: Pleasure Island

Nathan James' Pleasure Island isn't quite the adults-only event that the title may imply. The Canadian native (who currently resides in London) conjures a deceptively simple narrative in his selection of graphically altered portraits. James pinpoints a specific and often mundane moment while simultaneously — and somewhat startlingly — capturing the bigger picture beyond. Drawing from both vintage photography and skate culture, James utilises digital manipulation, silk-screen printing and traditional techniques to create images that etch themselves in the viewer's mind.
