PURE EVIL - KING SAMO

Born in South Wales in 1968, his father was the famed Welsh artist John Uzzelll Edwards. Charles studied fashion and graphic design in London before relocating to California, where he was first exposed to Street Art while working as a designer.
 
Heavily influenced by the Pop Art movement, Pure Evil is known for his Nightmare Series: doomed female icons, from Marilyn Monroe to Sharon Tate, are portrayed in Pop print colours, while a single, heavy tear (the artist’s trademark symbol) drips down their fated faces. A comment on the ills of celebrity culture, and the brutal realities of fandom and adulation, the instantly recognisable Nightmare Series has earned Pure Evil a well-deserved following in both Street and Contemporary Art circles.
