The exhibition project was born from the collaboration between Nero Gallery and HB production.

Two realities in synergy with each other:
Nero Gallery is a small and innovative art gallery, located at Pigneto, which deals with Lowbrow art and Pop surrealism. For three years now it has been promoting young Italian artists and is committed to bringing in Italy foreign artists known internationally.

Hb Production is a graphic and communication studio formed by a young team with great enforcement capacities, fantasy, and cutting-edge ideas.
The main mission is the management and renewal of the customer image through the use of high-profile styling solutions and the creation of products constantly evolving with the surrounding environment.

From this union is born "The Traveler", Phil Jarvis solo show.

Phil Jarvis is an American artist from Saint Louise. His artistic work ranges from lettering to murals without neglecting pictorial art from paintings to graphite designs. His creations take up surrealistic and geometric poetics with a wise and powerful color use. He lets himself be carried by the graphic sign, its reference matrix, bringing it to contemporary and new abstract dimensions.

"The Traveler"
Phil Jarvis sets out for the first time in Europe after his success in the US. Now known in Italy for his window stickers that we can admire in many of the most famous tattooer studios.
The theme of the exhibition is the traveler representing Phil's artistic and personal career. The journey is very dear to him and through his works he shares it for the first time with the Italian audience. City sketches, dreamlike atmospheres and extravagant characters represent its work. They are small narrations of his wander from town to town and from nation to nation. Like a contemporary Ulysses, he makes known and tells about his upsetting episodes, sometimes funny and sometimes enigmatic.
A multifaceted and free spirit, he seeks in every work to convey his soul and eccentric spirit.
In the exhibition you will find more than ten sketches and some canvases, many characters and landscapes are the narration of his past trip to Italy.
 
Phil Jarvis is a sought after, well-respected artist in Saint Louis who specializes in murals, signage and fine art. He is known for his surrealist, mind-bending creations that combine free-flowing shapes with surprising color. His work represents the truest sense of modern art: fresh, abstract ideas that abandon tradition in search of something new and innovative.
Today, you can see his murals and storefront signage around St. Louis, across the country, and around the world. Phil has had the opportunity to have his signage commissioned in France, Italy, Germany, and Colombia. He has been featured in numerous magazines such as St. Louis Magazine, Sauce Magazine, and Ladue News.
