I have always liked to work in a 3 dimensional and textural way. I have a fascination with celebrity and this artwork is an homage to Freddie Mercury. I have used a biker jacket as my canvas which has been completely covered in a variety of mixed media including acrylic, pen and ink. Freddie's portrait, which adorns the back of the jacket, had been hand painted onto satin which has then been quilted to give a 3D look. I've added patches, badges and safety pins to complete the punky/ pop art style. In addition I have used lgbtq language that has reclaimed by the community in a graffiti style to tell Freddie's imagined 'coming out' story. The jacket is on a gold coloured bust that is framed in a perspex cube on a revolving base.

Hizze Fletcher was born in Sheffield, England in 1965. Her childhood was marked by the colourful explosion of American music and cultural influences that dominated English society in the 60's and 70's. This early influence of 20th century American art and iconic imagery, combined with an upbringing inspired by strong females such as Madonna, magazines such as The Face and ID, and a passion for fashion, come together to create work that is bold, expressive, textured and graphical. Hizze's early artistic influences include Andy Warhol, Jean Michel Basquiat, Niki de Saint Phalle and Jackson Pollock. Hizze became involved in the beginnings of the House music scene in London after graduating from Central St. Martin's in 1989 and has gone on to work in events production for over 20 years, doing arts production for clubs, fashion shows, exhibitions, theme parties and television. Hizze also worked for a number of years as a commercial mosaic artist, producing designs for restaurants, bars and was featured on BBC Gardening Neighbours in 1999. In 2007 Hizze formed Thirteen Art Productions, an arts event production company in Brighton, and has gone on to conceptualise and produce a number of group-art exhibitions and events while establishing a strong connection with the creative community. Hizze also worked as curator for Brighton Pride's Arts & Film Festival 2013/14. In 2014 Hizze opened 'BRUSH', a unique art gallery come hair salon, in Brighton's historic North Laine. At Brush Hizze curates monthly art exhibitions representing the cream of Brighton's establish and emerging artists. www.brushbrighton.co.uk Hizze has been drawing, painting and producing art for many years exhibiting extensively in the UK and Spain.
