Dean Kemp

Kemp's work is sometimes arcane and brooding also powerful whilst being elegant, it is heavy and unforgiving with a backbone of social commentary and unmistakable angst. One of a few contemporary artists that are able to command the human figure with effortless conviction. This is an artist I have watched for some time with a sense of disbelief, a person from a working class background that has taught himself the art of sculpture. It is this coupled with his life experience and a natural instinct for draftsmanship; these are the ingredients used to shape the sculptures you see before you.
He has a dogged determination and conviction that is rivalled by no-one.
Destined for great things!
