About Michael St.Mark

Conceptual / experimental multi-discipline artist, writer and photographer. Art influencer and founder of London Dada, recalling Dada's original aims and principles as envisaged by it's founder Hugo Ball. Eschews the often politically-motivated taboo on expressions of critical thought within art. Admiring Duchamp in going beyond the seemingly endless infatuation with the ' pretty picture' retinal and instead refusing to accept the standards and practices of an established corrupt art world and creatively stifling conventions that are still considered essential to attain fame and financial success: refusing to repeat himself or to develop one recognizable style to placate the commercial needs of the market.

They say as you get older your mind tends to regress back into youth –  my full-of-wonder student daze of technical drawing and graphic design flights of fancy seem to be making a comeback here at a cluttered St.Mark towers.
It’s a total delight knocking this stuff out  – like enjoying a healthy al fresco meal with fine wine. Cathartic too.

Gifted singer, musician and rare perceptive wit, the artist Miss Von Trapp deserves appreciation.
Here, three recent pearls from a rather grand ocean of quirk.
An exceptional talent.

Logpecker
Dingo 2012


(click the images to enlarge)

After a day of scratching and scrabbling, London Dadaist Dingo yet again discovered a new species previously considered extinct by Darwinian evolutionists – the elusive Logpecker ( Picidaeous loggous), along with its fossilized chick to left picture.
In 2008 Dingo salvaged its genetic cousin, the long lost Logfish ( loggous fishous extraordinarious ), link here.
