    Endless brings Notting Hill into the picture with Endless Frieze

    On show from Monday 12 October, the exhibition combines a new neighbourhood-inspired installation with individually hand-embellished limited editions. A live event on Friday 16 October will invite visitors to become part of the artwork.

    London artist Endless brings his exploration of contemporary culture to Notting Hill with Endless Frieze, on show at Cris Contini Contemporary from Monday 12 to Saturday 31 October 2026.

    At the centre of the exhibition is a large-scale installation inspired by the streets, architecture and people surrounding the gallery. Constructed from mismatched, roughly cut wooden panels, it brings together local buildings, everyday scenes and layered portraits in a landscape that stretches through the space.

    The installation will evolve during a live participation event on Friday 16 October, from 6–9pm. With their permission, Endless will photograph visitors and incorporate elements of their faces directly into the artwork. This final stage will turn the installation into a record of both the neighbourhood and the people who experience the exhibition. The completed work will remain on display until 31 October.

    Interactive Installation and Hand-Embellished Editions

    Alongside the installation, the exhibition features works from Endless’s signature Chapel series and a selection of hand-embellished mixed-media limited editions.

    Produced in editions of just 25, the limited editions reflect the artist’s commitment to individual craftsmanship. Each piece is uniquely embellished with stencil work, pen and paint, while selected works also incorporate diamond dust and gold leaf. The printed image provides a foundation for further work by hand, giving every piece its own character.

    For Endless, the aim is to give collectors value for money by bringing the care, attention and substantial handwork associated with an original into a limited edition. With originals typically priced at £20,000–£25,000 and these limited editions at £4,000, the approach challenges conventional expectations of what a print can offer.

    Small editions and extensive embellishment are central to that ambition: collectors acquire a work bearing the artist’s individual interventions, at a more accessible price than an original.

    From London Street Art to Global Recognition

    Endless Frieze follows two sold-out exhibitions in London and Italy earlier this year and marks the latest chapter in a career spanning street art, museums, fashion and public commissions.

    After studying fine art and screen printing at Cambridge School of Art, Endless moved to London and began sharing his work on the city’s streets. His practice draws on advertising, celebrity and luxury imagery to explore consumer culture, identity and the symbols society invests with power.

    His recurring Chapel motif transforms familiar Chanel perfume imagery into a commentary on contemporary worship, while figures including Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell and Karl Lagerfeld appear throughout his work.

    His collectors include Kate Moss, Rita Ora, Derek Chisora and beauty entrepreneur Bobbi Brown. Brown has collected his work since 2016 and later collaborated with him on a Liberty London window installation for Jones Road Beauty.

    A defining milestone came in 2021, when Endless’s self-portrait with Gilbert & George entered the Uffizi’s permanent collection in Florence, becoming the first self-portrait by a street artist to join the museum’s collection. His relationship with the duo has remained an important part of his artistic development.

    In 2022, Endless exhibited in the Republic of San Marino’s pavilion at the Venice Biennale and opened his first museum solo exhibition at Casa Robegan in Treviso. A museum exhibition in Palermo followed in 2023, alongside the publication of his monograph, Endless Vol.1.

    His fashion collaborations include a capsule clothing collection and digital artworks with KARL LAGERFELD, as well as limited-edition designs for Fiorucci. He has also painted Liberty London’s main window and entrance doors, created a mural marking the fiftieth anniversary of the Beatles’ Abbey Road, and produced Powder to the People for the 2021 Alpine World Ski Championships in Cortina d’Ampezzo.

    The city’s harder edges remain equally present in his practice. His recent Endless x London exhibition incorporated discarded syringes and laughing gas canisters collected from London’s pavements, bringing the capital’s hardship and excess into dialogue with the luxury imagery that runs through his work.

    Further projects in 2026 include Cash Is King in Rome and a collaboration with Millefiori Milano. Disruption, a short branded film starring Endless, was selected as a finalist at the Cortinametraggio film festival. An exhibition at Indelible Fine Art in Brighton is planned for early 2027.

    With Endless Frieze, the focus returns to the streets around him. By inviting visitors into the installation and presenting limited editions shaped through extensive handwork, Endless brings participation and personal connection to the centre of the exhibition.
