Sam Shrug

Sam Shrug digs into club music nostalgia through street poster assemblage, paint, and halftone stencils.

After years performing as an electronic music live act under a secret alias, Shrug turned his energy to the streets. He tears down posters, scraps materials straight from the walls, and layers them with ink and spray paint to create raw, tactile collages. His work captures the scrappy, rebellious energy of illegal raves while nodding to the sleek, decadent pulse of clubland hedonism - a visual homage to the music and nights that never quit.
