The new solo exhibition, entitled “Herakut’s RENTAL ASYLUM,” from leading German graffiti artists and storytellers HERAKUT is being hosted at Los Angeles’ Corey Helford Gallery. After joining forces in 2004, the artists -- HERA (Jasmin Siddiqui) and AKUT (Falk Lehmann) -- merged their names and styles to collaborate as HERAKUT. Since then, the duo have been painting murals all over the world, along with additional works on canvas, paper and film for gallery and museum shows. Beyond international exhibitions around the world (France, Gaza, Germany and Jordan, among many others), live festival showings at Glastonbury (U.K.), Coachella (U.S.) and an appearance at the Happy 80th Birthday, Dalai Lama celebration (U.S.). HERAKUT shares: “The show is called ‘Rental Asylum’ – as we all need a place to rent somewhere far from today’s actual reality, don't we? And all our creatures on canvas are the happy patients of our rental asylum. Individuals coping with inner and outer demons, but also finding comfort in themselves and other asylum inmates. They all have different reasons for checking in with us, for a bit, before facing the shit show our world has become.”
