RuptureXIBIT is excited to welcome back Rupture allum Guy Shoham with his solo show 'POST'.

Shoham says the show uses the humble Post-it note to bring new context to his previous work.

The artist says: "Post-it notes as a way of reminding myself of events from the past years, unresolved issues and unfinished business.

"It became a way to reflect on the past and understand how my choices brought me to where I am."

The show's opening event starts at 7pm on Saturday at RuptureXIBIT. The work will be shown in the gallery until 12 May.
