ABOUT THE ARTIST
PKS is a London based oil painter & draftsman whose portfolio includes ethereal, otherworldly abstracted landscapes, surreal figurative works imbued with symbolism and old master inspired
fantasy paintings.
He is fascinated by themes of metamorphosis and transformation and in recent years he has developed several distinct series of works, that play with dualism and the esoteric, creating a fusion of futuristic subject matter with an aged aesthetic. Across each medium, his artistic style retains a consistent ethereal quality, and boasts polish and thoughtfulness that allows ideas of psychology, nature and consciousness to be pondered by each viewer.
"I am expressing an inner state of being, a yearning for other worlds and realities, driven by an exploratory drive." It is through this innate curiosity that I have developed several methods and techniques for creating artwork in highly individualistic styles.
Themes that intrigue and fascinate me, include metamorphosis, transformation, esotericism and mythology, and how these subjects are relevant to contemporary life.
In recent years I have developed several distinct series of works, creating a fusion of futuristic subject matter with an aged aesthetic, all of which utilize different painting methods. My work is full of symbolism and I prefer the viewer to be drawn into deciphering the imagery, coming to their own conclusions.”
