Street art meets sports culture in Tyrrell Winston’s highly anticipated solo exhibition, Life in the Fast Lane, set to open on November 16, 2024, at Volery Gallery in Dubai. Known for his distinctive style that transforms discarded objects—such as deflated basketballs and vintage sports memorabilia—into powerful artworks, Winston’s pieces invite viewers to reconsider the beauty in the overlooked and the narratives within everyday items.

Life in the Fast Lane features ten new “punishment paintings” and two iconic basketball installations, showcasing Winston’s deep connection to the themes of resilience, identity, and legacy in sports. This exhibition explores the parallels between athletes and artists, highlighting the often unseen sacrifices and relentless determination that drive both to greatness.
With a unique approach that combines fine art with street culture, Winston has captured the attention of major American institutions, including the Whitney Museum and MOCA. Now, he brings his celebrated work to the Middle East for the first time, creating a new dialogue within Dubai’s dynamic art scene.
Adding to the exhibition’s excitement, Winston will be in attendance at the opening, alongside special guest Emeric Tchatchoua, creative director of the Paris-based fashion brand 3Paradis. This blend of art, sports, and high fashion promises to make Life in the Fast Lane an unforgettable experience.
