About The Artwork

Marcus is a contemporary artist and painter from South London who uses a combination of layering, distressing and blending to present a multifaceted surface to his work. His work has been featured in various publications including Schön! Magazine, Art Plugged, Saatchi Online, Trebuchet, Condé Nast and Culture Trip and was recently named as one of Saatchi Arts top 20 emerging artists to watch in 2020. Having shown in exhibitions internationally, he has a background in design and developed his artistic style creating cutting edge gestural abstract works with vibrant and exciting sculptural elements. ​ “Marcus’ rigorous design background shines through in his creative process—building up and distressing multiple layers of pigment on wood panels and canvas, and then applying expressive brushstrokes—ultimately yielding expertly balanced and dramatic compositions.” – Rebecca Wilson, Chief Curator & VP Saatchi Art
