Inner State Gallery Returns To Miami For Annual Art Basel Miami Beach Art Fair
Presents New Works Doze Green, Cryptik, Hueman & Brad Eastman
Inner State Gallery is proud to present two of the contemporary art movement’s most sought after artists as New York City graffiti and b-boy legend Doze Green and storied calligrapher and international muralist Cryptik bring entirely new collections to Scope’s Miami Beach Art Fair. With both artists prolific in their own right, these new works highlight their intricate line work and unique visual vocabulary to make for a fitting compliment to one another, as both artists unveil harmonious exhibitions that transcend reality into the metaphysical. In addition the gallery will be showcasing select works from Oakland’s Hueman and Australia’s Brad Eastman to round out one the most anticipated exhibitions of the year.
The prestigious Scope Art Fair takes place during Art Basel Miami in the heart of Miami Beach and since its inception has proved to be the place to see the world’s leading contemporary artists and galleries. A monumental pavilion will welcome nearly 45,000 visitors over the course of six days. Showcasing more than 100 of the world’s best contemporary galleries, hundreds of artists will unveil new groundbreaking work during the largest art festival in the country.
A modern legend of the contemporary art movement Doze Green needs no introduction. As a founding member of the Rocksteady Crew his reach has stretched far beyond his breakdancing and subway graffiti roots. Delving into the metaphysical, Green continues to translate complex concepts through his flowing line work and color studies in this latest body of works. Fresh off a sold out show at Paris’ Galerie Openspace, Green’s latest works continue to push the line form as only he can.
Los Angeles based artist Cryptik will also unveil his latest collection of works created over the past year. These hypnotic Mantradalas are an exploration of how art can be used as a tool for meditation, introspection and trance induction. Each piece is adorned with sacred mantras and prayers in hopes of bringing blessings and positive karma to all who view it. Many of the works in this collection
According to Cryptik, “These Mantradalas are cosmic diagrams that remind us of our relation to the infinite and serves as a gateway to a world that extends beyond our material reality. Inspired by the Sacred Science of the ancient Egyptians, as well as the practice and creation of Tibetan sand mandalas, this collection reflects the long forgotten wisdom of our ancestors.”
Featured artists Hueman and Brad Eastman round out the Inner State Gallery booth showcasing intricate and vibrant works that highlight two of the growing new contemporary art movement’s most colorful and creative emerging artists.
Inner State Gallery’s Scope Exhibition is located at Booth C03 at 801 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach. More information can be found at Scope-Art.com

Doze Green
Born in 1964, Doze Green has continued to evolve from his roots as an innovator and driving force behind the 1970s New York City graffiti movement to a modern day renaissance man using his art as a catalyst to raise awareness for farming, sustainability and cultural enlightenment. As a founding member of the infamous Rock Steady Crew, Green’s early concentration focused on the value of numbers, letters and symbols, subsequently pushing graffiti into the metaphysical. Cubist, Futurist and Abstract Expressionist influences would soon become more apparent as Green shifted his focus to fine art, creating a unique blend of contemporary art all his own.
Cryptik
Cryptik is a Los Angeles based artist that creates works of art that explore the realm of spirituality and consciousness. His signature style of calligraphy and culturally inspired pattern work, along with his iconic depictions of deities and spiritual leaders, can be seen throughout the world, adorning the urban landscape and galleries alike. The goal of his art is to challenge people to think of other possibilities and to see a different reality; one that encompasses many ideologies, philosophies, and belief systems in order to help us better understand our place in the universe.

Hueman
Allison “Hueman” Torneros grew up drawing and painting in Northern California, and received her degree in Design | Media Arts from UCLA in 2008. Whether she is painting delicate visions on canvas, or crushing massive walls with a spray can, she often draws on the human condition to create freestyle mash-ups of the abstract and figurative, and the beautiful and grotesque. She is interested in creating ethereal motion and dimension on otherwise flat, two-dimensional surfaces.
Brad Eastman
Brad Eastman is an multidisciplinary artist from Sydney, Australia. Influenced by the beauty, symbolism and design aesthetics behind nature’s repetitive geometric growth patterns and organic lines, Beastman's tightly detailed, often symmetrical paintings depict an unseen world of new life, hope and survival. The instantly recognizable deities in the works have spawned from the elements of the earth, as if nature has come to life in a way we could never have imagined.
