Charming Baker’s <\/strong>art depicts allegories of both animal (plush and real) and human interactions with the ominous atmosphere of dark fairy tales. His penchant for ornate background patterns lend his scenes a quaint appeal and false promise of innocence belied by the disconcerting situations unfolding in the foregrounds; the spaces are fraught with tension, doom and a dark sense of humour. Baker’s style bears some influence from the local graffiti\/street art scene, yet his work is in fact indicative of a quite serious studio practice. The exhibition preview (4 June, 6pm) promises new prints and paintings and savoury cake.<\/span><\/p>\n
