British Pound from 2016 Colour Collection N39 Print

Deniss Inkins is an abstract impressionist painter and photographer who lives and works in London since 2003. His art presents Money in a philosophical way. His vision is that Money is a reality, a permanent feature of our everyday lives. It gives our lives a particular rhythm, a particular «charm», a particular perception of the world and our place in it. Money has changed not only «the world of things» and not only the «world of people», but it also has played a definite role in changing man's inner world - his interests, ideals, aspirations and moral criteria. Money has altered the system of human values, assigning itself a central role as a universal value. Having grown up in Latvia in late 80’s and 90’s money theme has impacted his goals and ambitions and led him to become a successful entrepreneur. He, however, always felt the inner craving for art. He learned art by attending galleries, exhibitions, even political meetings and creating his first art works. When the time was right, he took a photography course at the College Of Arts that increased his interest in photojournalism, street photography, and story writing. In 2013 Deniss opened his Art studio in Lancaster House, 70 Newington Causeway in Southwark, London where he passionately experiments with different painting techniques and ideas. All of the canvases I paint are unique works of art and my work includes drawing, painting, photography and collages. Each painting is a different abstraction of colour, form and texture. My painting is a process of discovery and I have passion for experimenting. "In my Art, I like to capture the expression of the world of money. Different mediums allow me to express different feelings and emotions. "I tend to work in series, and some of them are drip paintings representing British Pound. The positive energy of the painting brings luck to the business and attracts wealth. Wealth can comein many forms, not just financial wealth. Wealth and prosperity include abundance in friendship, good fortune, opportunities and power. "Women. Business. Art. These are my passions. "As a painter and photographer, I find inspiration in a variety of people and things, my own experience in life and nature. My inspiration comes from those who step outside of the line. “More than anything else, I want to make the most of my life and use my skills to create meaningful art.”Deniss Inkins is the creator of a new direction in art called Poundism.
