Kriss W

Born in England.Works in London.

My images are personal weapons of liberation.Being an artist seemed unrealistic, a fantasy.I wanted to be one of the pilots like in Flight of the Intruder.I'm attracted to a fairly ordered pictorial space with imperfections. Abstracts,fictitious portrait's,abstract figuration,landscapes,cities.It's a broad practice.Sometimes you need to travel out
on a limb,to gather it all together again,
utilising a variety of sources,effects and approaches.
