Gathered here today Painting

Pop psych other-worldly characters gathered in a circle. The piece is unmounted for shipping purposes but designed to have a bleed area so that a circle frame will take the characters to the edge. This piece echoes my love of outsider and underground comic art, where street and alt pop culture hang out - with a twist of animism and humour. Scotts artworks feature all over the UK at festivals and events, as a muralist and painter his work echoes the punk sensibilities of urban DIY sub-culture and joy of embracing an uncertain reality. Scott Walker, a muralist and explorer of post pop alt-culture, has been making visual works in London and beyond for 3 decades. His unique style of comic fed, urban psychedelia was born in the furnaces of Londons underground club scene, circa 1989. Back then, Scott was part of a club styling collective whose huge ultra violet canvases and murals adorned the walls of thumping railway arches and industrial warehouse raves, lurid dens of glamour and penthouse lairs through the 90's to the 00's. Presently Scott lives in the wilds of Dartmoor in the UK where he makes installation murals for festivals and commercial clients, juggles family life - and draws and paints. His interactive street-styled-punk colouring walls feature at festivals such as Glastonbury, Singapore kite festival, clients include BBC, Amnesty International, Action for Children, Google, Amazon, Microsoft. Scott continues to work within the education and festival sector providing huge interactive street styled canvases and panels, where school children and families can experience the thrill of expressing themselves as graffiti artists. His installations have had exposure all over the UK and abroad including in China, Singapore and UEA.
