THE CROTCH GRAB EXPLAINED
When you first see Crotch Grab, you might flinch—or laugh—or dismiss it entirely. And that’s the point. It’s not polite. It’s not passive. It’s a confrontation, a question, a protest sign dressed up as pop art. Endless originally pulled the pose from that infamous Mark Wahlberg Calvin Klein campaign—a moment where masculinity was marketed like a product, all abs and attitude. But this isn’t about Wahlberg. It’s about what happens when the tools of advertising are turned back on themselves.
Here, the body becomes a billboard, the pose becomes a provocation. And suddenly, what was once an aspirational image in a magazine becomes something altogether more dangerous on the streets of Brighton. Why? Because it’s no longer selling jeans—it’s selling a conversation.

Why Abstract Art Is the Smartest Thing You Can Put on Your Wall
Abstract art does more than fill a wall — it activates the brain, encourages emotional processing, and gives the mind space to interpret and reflect. Like a Rorschach test, it invites you to project meaning, not just consume it. In this piece, we explore how abstraction works on a neurological level — and why collecting it isn’t just a visual decision, but a deeply personal one.
How Cornwall Became a Powerhouse of British Art
St Ives wasn’t supposed to be the centre of anything. But by the mid-20th century, this quiet Cornish fishing town had become one of the most important sites for British modernism. Artists like Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson, and Patrick Heron weren’t drawn there by prestige — they came for the light, the space, and the freedom to experiment. What followed was a radical shift in how art could relate to landscape, form, and place. Cornwall didn’t just inspire the work — it shaped it.
