Kaff-Eine hails from Melbourne, Australia and has spent two weeks in Brooklyn in June doing her first paintings here ever. The dryly warm days have provided a perfect opportunity to bask in the sun and paint her slender and sexy animal/human hybrids in repose.
Toronto born and based Li-Hill samples a larger swath of the graffiti/street art style continuum but overlapped Kaff-Eine in the animal world when they collaborated as a crew in the BK last week.

Their Fantasy-Figurative Vs. Abstracted Vs. NeoRealism styles could not be more disanalogous, but this is the age of the mashup-transformer-cyborg so this sweet pair of walls at the Bushwick Collective served as an open laboratory of skin grafting and limb planting for Kaff-Eine and Lil-Hill and all to witness and behold. The resulting futuristic energy field envelopes a darkly quiet otherworldly scene that plays either side of a steer barred window beneath a coiled razor wire.
