@okhosay and The Jaunt are excited to announce 'The Raw Line'. A collaborative exhibition featuring the work of Joram Roukes (Netherlands), KC Ortiz (Denmark) and Troy Lovegates (Canada). ‘The Raw Line’ opens on the 4th of September at Arcade Art Gallery in Kaohsiung City, Taiwan.

The title of the show, ‘The Raw Line’, refers to the works of Joram Roukes, KC Ortiz and Troy Lovegates. Although each artist has their own distinct aesthetic, their joint practice is defined by the raw lines featured in their paintings and drawings. As a collective, their work is direct, honest and makes no concessions. KC Ortiz uses raw lines to make political commentary, depict civil unrest, and American pop culture. Troy Lovegates utilizes the strength of line in his drawings of underrepresented communities and the life of societies hidden in plain sight. Finally, Joram Roukes showcases these same raw lines in his approach to collaging American fauna, new-school graffiti and historical statues.

‘The Raw Line’ is presented in collaboration with The Jaunt. The Jaunt is a unique project that is best described as a traveling art residency project. They send artists to places they have never been, in order to find new inspiration. Now in times of COVID-19, where international travel has not been possible for the last year and a half, we are excited to have The Jaunt bring various parts of the world to Taiwan, and share the joy of discovering a new place through the eyes of the artists.

Alongside the exhibition with Joram Roukes, KC Ortiz and Troy Lovegates, there will be a selected overview of prints from artists who have worked together with The Jaunt. These artists are Sasa Ostoja, Tellas Andy Welland, Greg Ito, Anna Valdez and Ellen Rutt, and the three featured artists from the exhibition.
