Benny Ong had told me about the Reka show previously.
The opening night happened to be on the same day as V fest so I had to miss it but I was still keen to go check out his work on the following day and I did so just before I did the Lions at your door shoot.
It was a beautiful show, very simple yet sensual. The exhibition is called "Tall Oaks", judging by the name, you'd guess it was inspired by nature and after a walk about around the gallery. It is clear that Reka's work is heavily inspired by his love of nature and his graffiti character influences.
I had a brief chat with him, he was amazingly humble and approachable.
I was really disappointed that I didn't have a note pad to write a proper interview, but we had exchange details to resume future contact.
You can see some more of Reka's work on here
