GREY FORM 2 Drawing

Martin is a painter, photographer, poet, film maker, installation artist, and composer using traditional and contemporary media. He likes to explore the properties of the materials he uses, looking for ways to subvert them. He was born in Kent in1948 and has always had the creative impulse to express himself via the arts, influenced by Picasso, Pollock, and other arts from the postwar period. In recent times he has been experimenting with pastel on canvas to make abstract and figurative work, also playing with found objects to make 3D works. These works are responses to music, history, and life in general. He is currently venturing deeper into making music, describing it as a kind of 21st Century Blues infused with beats, noise, and sound effects, using guitars, synthesisers, samplers, and the spoken word. http://www.facebook.com/martinroxart http://soundcloud.com/martrox
