EST..

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

EST.. is the brand label of a group of New Zealand based artists that specialize in creating graffiti-influenced art. The name "EST.." was originally used to remain elusive, but is now more of a trademark to the young company.

The artists of EST.. are currently making inroads on the international contemporary art scene with their unique perspectives and creations, taking graffiti from the streets to the home; from the concrete jungle walls to pieces of furniture, the traditional canvas, and even clothing.

Early in 2005 the EST.. concept was inspired when Esther Peterson decided to leave school to focus on art and has never looked back.

From small beginnings in a dusty room in the side of a mechanic's workshop in the small locality of Aka Aka (near Waiuku) in rural New Zealand, EST.. have now developed a wide range of art with a new distinct flavour that is difficult to categorise. Their official website describes their pieces simply as "Art with a difference". Recently Esther's brother Luke came onboard under the EST.. label showcasing a wide range of photographs from around the world.

EST.. have opened an gallery and store that showcases their work in Paerata, a small town just north of Pukekohe, south of Auckland, New Zealand.
