Descension is a 10 colour screen print by Remi Rough. From an edition of 50 this artwork is signed and numbered by the artist. ‘Descension’ This print is based on the original design for my mural for the Marrakech Biennale in Morocco 2016. The idea was a descending fold, ergo the title.
My mission is to break people’s conceptions of what graffiti writing can become. It’s such an important movement, being the only art movement in history to be created by and taken forward by children, that it deserves gravitas.

Rough's striking compositions distil down the scenes of the city into kinetic geometric shapes that carry a ‘streetwise’ energy that harks back to his experience as a train writer in London in the 1980s. During this time, Rough garnered a reputation as an accomplished graffiti artist with his work decorating trains all over the city. We love how the graffiti influence is still present in Remi’s recent abstract work, visible in his use of bright colours and bold intersecting shapes. Rough has been part of London’s art scene for more that 25 years. The work once seen on the side of trains has now been exhibited worldwide in places such as Berlin, New York, Tokyo, Paris and Miami. Rough has participated in multiple group exhibitions, and his solo shows include Home at Scream Gallery in 2015, Sound Pigments at Magda Danysz Gallery in Paris, 2017, and MOCA London’s Volume exhibition in 2018. Rough also participated in painting London’s largest mural along with other members of the Agents of Change.
