ROISIN MURPHY Let us know!

The London scensters have been talking for a good year now and I had been cynical. "Roisin Murphy is IT!" They had been testifying but I didn't believe. Yeah the songs were fun to dance to and ...yeah.. she really had a way with a Gareth Pugh and all that was very cute to boot. But was she possibly legendary? I almost didn't make the show..what with a 730 am flight to the Bahamas the next morning but something said.."Get into that Margiela one-sie . Don't wear a T-shirt under it and go out and have some fun"

Matthew Stone: PH: Terence Koh: ID Magazine Dec 07

Matthew Stone is 6' 3" which has made this flamboyant showman/shaman an even more imposing presence on the New London art/music/fashion circuit. He takes photographs, served (in every sense) as the resident DJ at Boombox, is obsessed with Michael Jackson and has become a highly hyped artist of the minute . His partners in crime include artist Terence Koh and designer Gareth Pugh and his parties, outfits, art happenings and publicity stunts has made him a one man cult. Is he worth collecting? Mr. Stone was included in a fantastic group show at 10 Rooms and a Sculpture Garden last year and given his network of contacts (ID mag is pushing him hard) it is only a matter of time before the make-or-break collectors engage his work. Besides a little riffing on venerable Renaissance paintings always turns somebody on.
