His works explore themes of identity, consumerism, and the power of words, making them instantly recognisable and engaging.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Dave &nbsp;has exhibited widely across the UK, earning a reputation for his distinctive style that bridges pop art and street culture with clever, irreverent energy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>For more information on the work of Dave Buonaguidi go to</p><p>https://realhackneydave.com/</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>To Support this podcast from as little as £3 per month: <a href="http://www.patreon/ministryofarts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.patreon/ministryofarts</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>For full line up of confirmed artists go to https://www.<u>ministryofarts.co.uk</u></p><p>Email: [email protected]</p><p>Social Media: @ministryofartsorg</p><p>&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
