We will display a mix of provocateur unseen as well as releasing a new piece from his upcoming series launching on the 5th of June exclusive with Imitate Modern in London. We want to show what Tyler Shields has to give. There’s a lot more in Tylers Provocateur repertoire. Lyric, sexy, dreamy, dangerous are the perfect words for what you can expect on display. It’s a homage to Tyler.
