Outsider, Stand out, 92cm x 61 cm, Acrylic on Canvas, 2019

Outsideris a pseudonym belonging to a mainstream educator who is looking to challenge normative practices in the industry by introducing his own brand of contemporariness. Additionally, he is also an avid art collector and musician who considered himself to be standing on the outside looking in due to a lack of formal education and training; something he more than makes up for with a strong passion. As a self-taught artist, he is greatly inspired and influenced by artists such as Picasso, Sarah Morris and Yunizar.

Coming from a background in the Sciences and Finance, he found his initial inspiration and creative foothold from copying comic book illustrations. Now under the guidance of Ken Chang, gallery owner and scholar from the University of Reading, he has since progressed to operating on a different mode from most by embracing his roots and incorporating them in to his works.
