'Hey Apathy!'
A large drawing installation by Mike Parsons

This impressive collection of original work includes 10 by 12 ft Street Murals created on Queen Street and in Kensington Market between March and September of 2007. Parsons will also unleash his newest ink-on-canvas studio drawings, each of which took between 100 and 150 hours to complete, as well as the last 200 of 1000 small canvas works.

The artist has independently published two comic books, and will officially release "Hey Apathy! Book One" at the exhibition. Parsons will also present the first in his new line of limited edition poster prints. A full line of the artist's merchandise will also be available.
