With the human form the primary With the human form the primary concern of his art, Bangkok resident Welsh artist Nigel Price absorbs imagery from everyday observations. His paintings are a direct response to his immediate environment, as well as an observation of contemporary popular culture.

Utilising photographs and drawings from various sources - personal, the Internet and other media - these images go into a manipulated melting pot rendering them distant from the original. Mixing and contrasting seemingly unconnected elements, Price avoids direct narratives leaving his compositions ambiguous for more open-ended interpretations. Yet such ambiguity is loaded with insinuation and innuendo that nudges certain perceptions.
