ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The landscape is dominated by a flower with huge petals which look like tentacles of an octopus flailing underwater. In the middle of the flower, the stamen and carpel have formed into a huge eye which is studying us. Elsewhere the imagery suggests we are on firm land. Also watching us are two insects. In the foreground other staticflowers and plants are unaffected by any gusts of wind or currents of water. They are lit by a pinkish glow perhaps denoting sunrise or sunset, yet the flat sandy horizon of this primeval landscape is far off in the distance.

He graduated with a BA (Hons) in Graphic Design from Middlesex University and has exhibited in the ICA in London and the Künstlerhaus, Vienna. Prints of his drawings from his book The Inkspot Monologues which sold worldwide and were exhibited in the Freud Gallery in London. He uses surrealism and humour to satirise the human condition, environmental justice and societal issues. He works primarily in oil paints and he uses motifs and layers of iconography from the natural, the classical world and visual memory. In each work, he experiments using the language of form, colour, shape, space, and volume. These works explore the dichotomies of childhood and adulthood, the conscious and unconscious, and the seen and unseen in various emphasis and combinations.  Biography He exhibited paintings with the Henry Boxer Gallery, London, alongside Scottie Wilson and George Grosz, the Espacio Gallery, 2017, Shoreditch, London, the Churchgate Gallery, Porlock, 2018, curated by artist David Harrison (Victoria Miro Gallery), alongside other artists, including Peter Doig, Issac Julien CBE RA, and Abigal Lane.
