Tyler Street Art
For the first time, the artwork of Mumbai’s most infamous street artist, Tyler, will grace gallery walls. His untitled solo show will open on Thursday, 14th January 2021 as a part of Mumbai Gallery Weekend and will run until Sunday, 7th March 2021. The works will be spread across Method Art Space’s two locations, Kala Ghoda & Bandra. While this will be the third show in the newly opened Bandra space, the Kala Ghoda gallery has been expanded to twice its usual size to accommodate the entire show.
Tyler's pieces, all created on found objects off the street, further his signature stencil art style with characters and situations that humorously reflect on various political, social, gender and caste based structures. For over 10 years, Tyler has boldly expressed his opinions on various matters using the city's streets as a canvas. With his first solo exhibit, Tyler and Method welcome everyone—not just art enthusiasts—to come and experience his works in two consolidated spaces.
