5 Must-See Highlights at MotoArto 2025: Where Art and Automotives Collide

This July, London’s Shoreditch will roar to life with MotoArto—a groundbreaking new event where petrol-powered dreams meet pure artistic expression. Taking place at The Bike Shed from 3–5 July 2025, MotoArto isn’t just another car show or art fair—it’s an immersive celebration of reimagined vehicles and boundary-breaking creativity. Here are five unmissable highlights to look out for:


1. Sophie Tea’s Live Painted Porsche Macan Electric

Art cars aren’t new—but watching one come to life in real-time is something else entirely. Contemporary art superstar Sophie Tea will be transforming the all-new electric Porsche Macan into a rolling sculpture live at the event. Known for her vibrant colour palette and fearless energy, Sophie will splash hues of pink, lilac, and red across the sleek SUV over three days.

As Sophie puts it, “The Porsche Macan Electric will be my largest and most exciting canvas yet. It had to be a Porsche—bold, stylish, iconic, and unafraid to push boundaries, just like my art.”

Expect crowds, cameras, and colour in motion.


2. Renard x Maxim: The ‘Wings of Freedom’ Motorcycle

One of the most talked-about unveilings at MotoArto will undoubtedly be ‘Wings of Freedom’—a bespoke motorcycle born from a collaboration between Renard Motorcycles and Maxim of The Prodigy. This one-of-a-kind machine blends high-concept visual art with handcrafted engineering, featuring painted feathers by Maxim himself that juxtapose fragility with raw power.

As Maxim says, “It’s not just about rebellion or motion; it’s about fragility, transformation, and unexpected beauty.”

Priced at £100,000 and available for purchase, this machine is both an artwork and a collector’s dream.


3. Reimagined Jaguar XK Roadster by Thornley Kelham

For lovers of classic cars with a modern soul, Thornley Kelham will reveal their reinterpretation of the legendary Jaguar XK Roadster. Their meticulous restoration process involves 6,000 hours of craftsmanship and uses the same award-winning techniques that have wowed judges at concours events around the world.

This isn’t a simple restoration—it’s a total reinvention. A timeless design elevated to meet today’s performance standards while honouring its iconic heritage.


4. Langen’s New ‘Lightspeed’ Motorcycle

British motorcycle artisans Langen will unveil their latest marvel—the Lightspeed. Described as a “symphony of design and power,” this handcrafted bike exemplifies the passion and precision that defines Langen’s brand.

MotoArto promises the first look at this cutting-edge machine, which fuses aesthetic elegance with adrenaline-fuelled performance.


5. A Cultural Movement in Motion

Beyond the headline launches and celebrity collaborations, MotoArto is a celebration of a rising subculture. Inspired by the rebellious Outlaw spirit, the event showcases over 20 visual artists reimagining automotive culture—through sculpture, film, photography, and immersive installations.

Whether you’re a collector, a creator, or just curious, MotoArto offers a bold new vision of what vehicles—and the communities around them—can represent.
