Hold Fast!

You Maker

ABOUT

Keith Bowman, AKA Hold Fast! You Maker explores how images accumulate meaning through color, pattern, and repetition, evoking memory, place, and atmosphere.

Working on a manual screen-printing press and using a limited Day-Glo-inspired palette from the 1970s and a visual style influenced by a lifelong steady diet of comic books and Japanese sci-fi, his work draws from the visual language of urban environments: layered posters, graffiti, advertising, and weathered public surfaces. Rather than reproducing these scenes, he distills their energy into compositions shaped by layering, interruption, and controlled disruption.
