LUSH Print Release - 3rd July, by fingerz on Jun 28, 2012 12:49:56 GMT 1, LUSH is the bloke almost single-handedly attempting to bring humour, rudeness and big-gay-unicorn-sex back into the graffiti game. He is without doubt from Australia and has his own hair. Heโs also one of the few artists out there right now who feels genuinely a bit... dangerous. Lush is currently in London and will be creating a stink with his warehouse show full of dead animals and smart-arse canvases. But before drowning in a puddle of his own irony he came into PoW to create this... Yes it's a fold-out 8 colour exploded unicorn print thatโs acceptable to both casual animal torturers and members of PETA. There's a hundred of them, they're nice and they're ยฃ125 each. Available July 3rd (print will be supplied creased, not folded).

And has sold out several shows at blackwoods before opening night.

LUSH Print Release - 3rd July, by andyctree on Jun 28, 2012 13:00:31 GMT 1, yeah its going to be difficult keeping the debate civilised and adult when the artist in question is pretty juvenile and intentionally offensive! surely anyone mortally offended by "adult content" won't be looking at a Lush thread anyway??
This. If you create art for shock value then you should be able to accept people saying your art is garbage.

Check out Planet Unicorn 1 on YouTube. (on iPhone, can't post link)
I think some of his images are great. I don't consider it homophobic. But that's just me.

Planet unicorn is different because it's not derogatroy about the gay clichรฉs it features.
Lush's stuff is saying that being gay is an undesirable thing to be, that being gay is inferior to being straight. It's no different to saying being black is inferior to being white.
I'm really surprised at POW for supporting this.

LUSH Print Release - 3rd July, by jusdeep on Jun 28, 2012 16:03:53 GMT 1, I personally like Lush. Nice to see someone him getting some recognition over here. It's so grotesquely blatant and OTT it's almost genius. Even the wife thinks his work is funny, but not sure she'd want the print on the wall.
