The critically-acclaimed work of brothers Jake and Dinos Chapman is on show as part of a new Hayward Touring exhibition, which opened at the centre on Saturday.

The imaginative Chapmans were renowned in the 1990s as Young British Artists, and are now notorious for their dark and irreverent imagery.

Their latest work, called My Giant Colouring Book, is a series of 21 monochrome etchings based on dot-to-dot drawings from children's books.

But all the rules of progressing from one dot to another are broken by artistic deviations.

What starts life as an innocent illustration has been turned into the stuff of nightmares.

The images, which include sabre-toothed owls, skeletal clowns and psychedelic grinning cats, are surprisingly harmless on closer inspection and have strong references to art history from medieval images of hell to surrealism and expressionism.

Dinos said their work is about "how wrong you could make an image".
The exhibition in Lynn, which ends on Sunday, February 10, is the first of 13 being held across the country, finishing in Cheltenham in November.

The Arts Centre in King Street is open Tuesday to Saturday between 11am and 4pm and admission is free.
