Babylon 2' is inspired by the statue of the Goddess Iris in the British Museum. She is the Goddess of the rainbow and reflects the vibrant multicultural city of London, or any city of tolerance and diversity, a modern Babylon. She is surrounded by circular motifs from the Ottoman collection of textile designs from the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Gold leaf is hand applied to further rounded patterns on the body of Iris, where as the diamond dust is applied to the circular shapes on the right to offer a contrast to the layering of colours. Babylon 2 is part of a collection of 10 mixed media digital prints, produced exclusively at Printspace in Shoreditch, East London. Printed on German etching paper, each one is hand painted individually with acrylic paint to bring out the mark making and colours and embellished with gold leaf and diamond dust. Each artwork differs in appearance due to the bespoke hand painted quality added to the surface. The image creates a seductive life of its own, with its unique blend of traditional and contemporary media. Each artwork is made to order from this collection and will be bespoke and individually made.

MISTER, is a London based Artist who has exhibited in Europe and the USA. He has a growing fan base, and collectors worldwide. He was professionally trained in Fine Art and started his career originally and successfully in teaching. Later on in life, MISTER took a leap of faith to pursue his art as a full time artist. He was awarded the Royal Arts prize in 2020, and a subsequent solo exhibition at the Galleria Pall Mall Gallery followed, as well as exhibitions in Madrid and Lisbon. His inspiration comes from the history of Art, story telling, and images of strong female figures, and in exploring the boundaries of gender and cultural identity. In expressing colour and narrative, he carefully crafts and weaves together images to produce a striking visual mixed media art form. He initially works in his sketchbook using drawing, collage and paint to develop his imagery. He will further enhance his imagery with digital and multi layered images from his travels, Art history, and other urban and everyday sources. Each artwork he creates exists within a limited collection of 10 pieces. Each piece will vary in appearance due to the hand painted techniques and bespoke embellishing of gold leaf and diamond dust applied to each piece. MISTER is currently interested in themes of guardianship, and the strength which can be developed and promoted within others. He often draws upon from his extensive experience in teaching Art and as a classroom practitioner, as well as his pastoral role for the welfare of others. He is testimony in his belief in life long learning and in continuing to develop and thrive in this ever changing world.
