About

The Subversive Post Office is a creation by British artist RichHARD HoffMAN. The series explores the journey of being a human, exploring the unthinkable, hand painting his way through mint genuine stamps, thus transforming them into tiny works of subversive art.

A stamp is the payment for journey, yet has so many references and history. He embraces popular culture to use as a medium to provoke questions in his work. RichHARD prefers to leave out the answers like ripping out the last page in a novel to aid longevity but simply hint and make suggestions.

Originally from the Cronx- London; he was trained at Central Saint Martins, and now primarily works from his studio in Barcelona, travelling to the UK and US for events.

“Ephemeral yet so precious, the humble postage stamp embodies so much”
