ABOUT THE ARTWORK
In my process there needs to be an external catalyst. My mind is full of faces that I’d like to paint and so I’m constantly looking out for these imaginary faces in real life, because I need real people to add soul to my work. Once I see someone - usually just on the street, in a bar or at a party - it’s pretty straightforward ... I ask them if they’ll sit for a portrait. Sometimes they agree, sometimes they don’t, so it’s very hit and miss. In this way I guess fate plays a significant hand in who I paint !

Kos Cos
Hong Kong
Kos Cos is an abstract artist from Sri Lanka residing in Hong Kong. He is known for his unconventional approach to art, which involves using bold brushstrokes, vivid colours, and movement. By employing innovative techniques of form, geometry, and pattern, Kos Cos explores the nature of human thoughts and the cyclical aspect of life. His art is influenced by the aesthetics of billboard paintings that were prevalent in Sri Lanka during the 1990s, as well as advertising. Kos Cos also received training in cartoon drawing under the tutelage of Sri Lankan cartoonist Mr S. C. Opatha. Kos Cos has exhibited his artwork in both the United Kingdom and Hong Kong. He was a finalist for the 2018 Royal Art Prize and was also chosen as one of the artists for Saatchi Art's inaugural NFT drop, 'The Other Avatars,' in 2022. His art has been acquired by prestigious institutions such as Standard Chartered Bank, HSBC Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences, in addition to private collectors from the United States, United Kingdom, France, Belgium, China, Hong Kong, Japan, and Australia.
