Collection:
The Trunk of Funk
Gareth, who was born in Singapore and raised in a secluded valley in Wales, currently resides in Macclesfield. He is an up-and-coming mixed media artist whose creations are increasingly attracting attention from contemporary art collectors both in the UK and internationally.
By incorporating various methods ranging from photography to digital techniques and traditional drawing with pen and brush, his art reflects influences from childhood experiences, vintage fabrics, street art, and a meticulous attention to detail driven by O. C. D. He does not feel confined by conventional artistic norms and utilizes any necessary skills and materials to achieve his artistic vision.
His most recent collection, Urban Geisha, showcases his interests and influences by presenting modern interpretations of the traditional Geisha. The impact of street art is evident, along with his fascination for Eastern symbols and imagery. Each artwork is uniquely crafted, layering Gold Leaf, acrylic paints, Hanko stamps, Japanese postage stamps, and 3D relief tiles into the composition.
