As part of our Art Market weekender this coming September, we're buzzing to announce that we'll be hosting a very fun and intimate fireside talk (minus the fire) with one of our favourite illustrators on the 🌎, Mr Bingo.

Tickets will shift in double quick time, so don't snooze.

About Mr Bingo

Mr Bingo was a commercial illustrator for 15 years, working regularly for clients such as The New Yorker, The Guardian, TIME, CH4, The Mighty Boosh & The New York Times. An archive of the thousands of illustrations from this period doesn’t exist online because he got bored once in a motorhome and deleted his entire portfolio website. You can see a small selection of work from this period here.

In 2015 he launched a Kickstarter to fund a book about his Hate Mail project. The campaign featured a rap video and a diverse selection of rewards including being trolled, having your washing up done, going on a date in Wetherspoons, being told to fuck off on Christmas Day and getting shitfaced on a train.

He decided around this period to never work for clients ever again and focus on being some sort of artist which he’s done ever since.

In 2023 Mr Bingo decided to take an entire year off as an experiment and left London with a rucksack and no plan at 8:40pm on Dec 31st 2022. He was spotted in Sri Lanka, Japan and Cornwall.

Fondita Mestiza presents its first marisquería-style pop-up of the summer: an evening where the flavours of the sea connect two shores: Mexico and Ireland. Drawing from traditional seafood recipes from Mexico City and Mazatlán, we reinterpret them using Irish coastal ingredients to create a unique four- course menu. 

This event will be a living installation, a visual and sensory reinterpretation of Mexican seafood joints within the Irish context. The space will be transformed with imagery, colors, and decor inspired by the marisquerías of the Mexican Pacific, adapted with an Irish twist.

Live music, drinks to pair with the menu, and above all, a space where food, culture and art meet.
