“When I’m not creating in the
studio, I spend many hours in my favourite West London coffee shop sketching
out ideas and playing with concepts. Many people come in and out throughout the
day and I like to earwig in on conversations, deconstruct them, and almost
psychoanalyze them. I then put them back together with a funny twist and use
that as a basis for a piece of art, I create the imagery around the caption. A
lot of my work is based on conversations I’ve personally listened in on or
things I’ve seen on social media posts or comments. I always try to find the funny angle,
especially with stuff that’s often quite dark. I have a fearless approach to my
work, whether that’s taking the p*** out of gluten intolerance, social media
influencers, online dating or our own insecurities that rattle around in our
minds fuelled by advertising, consumerism, and capitalism.” Mr. Controversial.
