James R

James has developed a highly distinct style since joining artbox. His work is sparky and frenetic, often funny, richly layered and full of movement, his greatest strength being the quality of line with which he draws. His work mainly derives from copying images from magazines, as the stuff of the world is reflected in a strange and uncanny way through him. Recently, his source imagery has come from publications such as Country Living or World of Interiors - coveted, ornate antiques, luxury items and houses are rearranged and re-seen, often made to appear ridiculous.
