ABOUT

The name ‘SnowSkull’ was derived from the poem “Death” by Gregory Corso. It portrays the contrast between the purity of snow and the macabre definition of the skull. The juxtaposition of light versus darkness and life versus death. Themes that run through his creative practice. The skull is usually a symbol of death, but SnowSkull believes the skull is the armour that protects the brain and allows it to nurture our dreams, thoughts and creativity.

SnowSkull is a Goldsmiths educated artist who focuses primarily on contemporary abstract painting. He also has a growing portfolio of video, music, mixed-media, digital manipulation and installation work. He has created artwork for book covers and digital and vinyl music releases across the world, and had his work featured in various publications including The Guardian and Vice. His work has been exhibited in, among other places, Cardiff, London and Tokyo, and is held in private collections across the UK, Europe and America.

SnowSkull is interested in exploring the mechanism of thoughts, memories and the immersion of dreams in his work, and is in constant evolution as an artist.
