ARTIST INFO
About
As an Artist & Designer I like to create playful and hopefully humorous ’Pop-Surrealist’ sculptures and prints combining images drawn from a huge variety of sources from classical art to contemporary packaging & advertising. I like to combine disparate imagery and materials to create eclectic, playful and amusing pieces. Often using discarded children’s toys, packaging etc to generally achieve a wholly disarming effect, one that he likes to think belies the quiet and contemplative aesthetic with which I hope his work is ultimately underlined by. Working as both an artist and graphic designer he’s interested in the overlap of both disciplines.
