Image Dimensions: 59.4 x 37 cm Bowie studied art, music and design, including layout and typesetting. After Terry Burns, his half-brother, introduced him to modern jazz, his enthusiasm for players like Charles Mingus and John Coltrane led his mother to give him a plastic alto saxophone in 1961; he was soon receiving lessons from a local musician. Born and raised in South London, Bowie developed an interest in music as a child, eventually studying art, music and design before embarking on a professional career as a musician in 1963. "Space Oddity" became his first top-five entry on the UK Singles Chart after its release in July 1969. After a period of experimentation, he re-emerged in 1972 during the glam rock era with his flamboyant and androgynous alter ego Ziggy Stardust. The character was spearheaded by the success of his single "Starman" and album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, and it won him widespread popularity. In 1975, Bowie's style shifted radically towards a sound he characterised as "plastic soul", initially alienating many of his UK devotees but garnering him his first major US crossover success with the number-one single "Fame" and the album Young Americans. In 1976, Bowie began a sporadic acting career, starring in the cult film The Man Who Fell to Earth. The following year, he further confounded musical expectations with the electronic-inflected album Low (1977), the first of three collaborations with Brian Eno that would come to be known as the "Berlin Trilogy". "Heroes" (1977) and Lodger (1979) followed; each album reached the UK top five and received lasting critical praise.

Every work I start is an experiment. There's more to words to describe the evolution of each idea in the space and time it takes for it to materialize. There's the emotion I have for it, the feelings that arise at each stage of the making and then there's the joy of seeing that idea accomplished into a work or a series. My purpose is to create something that is meaningful and personal as well as deeply connected to the present moment through the topics that I choose to represent. Images and contexts that are directly derived from the human spirit, from the casual of civilization and evolution. Images of consumption and desire. Emotions like love, lust and joy get mixed together with powerful social statements and intriguing colors. The result is a complex mix of images and shapes. My intention is to achieve surprising associations of imagery: a reflection of my way of seeing life.
