| David Ellis is also a celebrated graffiti-turned fine artist. His work is both visceral and cerebral; it ranges from his spray can art reminiscent of psychedelic sound waves to his recent gallery work consisting of highly original multimedia sound installations and sculptural wall scapes.
A collaboration between these two undeniably influential New York artists could only result in a larger than life project — Shaft is a site specific project fusing the trademark styles of each artist as they cover a 25 foot elevator shaft from top to bottom creating an epic vertical mural.
Each page shares a part of the elevator shaft as it morphs and connects elements from each artist blending them together in this ambitious celebration of the hidden urban landscape.
