About The Artwork
This ongoing series takes the aura of a stereotypical grandmother's lifetime collection of nik-nakkery and improves upon it with a form of creative, elastic zombification. Perhaps bitten, smeared, infected or revelling in the gleaming black inky ooze of creative potential, these objects inhabit a space between the weekly-polished display cabinet and a contemporary nightmare space, where danger lurks around every corner and within every unknown, a more fitting totem of decoration for our current age of panic. The benign and kitsch becomes predatory or hunted; Little Miss Muffet drools from her zombified rictus across a landscape filled with her infected brethren, shiny and gleaming, whilst elsewhere a kitten is eviscerated by its sibling in a pleasing monotonal contrast of murder.

United Kingdom
Utilizing a hybrid language of materials, Lanyon hovers between the seduction of materials and the bite of the uncanny; the familiar, formal, decorative and symbolic rendered subversive. Shifting and melding narratives that weave the quiet violence of mortality with simultaneously contemporary and ancient human concerns, the work lures us in only to quietly lift a knife to our back. After graduating from the Royal College of Art, Lanyon was selected as one of the Saatchi Gallery & Channel 4's "˜4 New Sensations'. His work is included in the Zabludowicz Collection. He lives and works in Bristol & London, UK.
