Over the past 3 years, Dominic Rowswell, the organiser behind the UK's Bicker Gallery has organised shows in temporary venues in London and Bristol, commonly called 'pop up shows'. This allows the artists work not to be limited to the normal conventional gallery space. The 'pop up' shows also enable the gallery to adapt accordingly to the artists wishes, all the while keeping the audience interested by inviting them to visit spaces that they might not ordinarily visit.

Previous shows have been held in such places as High Street shops, a disused underground station, an old police station and a converted warehouse. The venue is not revealed until a couple of weeks prior to the gallery opening.

'Wonderlust' is the work of British born Yorkshire artist, Xenz aka Graeme Brusby, who began painting graffiti in the derelict warehouses of Hull during the early 90s and studied textiles at Edinburgh College of Art. He then he moved to Bristol (UK) in the late 90s where he made an impact on the cities walls with consistent output of fresh inspiring artwork.
