Alex Daw

 Alex Daw makes paintings, collages, drawings, installation and sculpture.

Mocking our cult society, satirising the clinical and surgical lengths to which celebrities go to alter their appearances, Daw’s works are refreshingly post-modern.  ‘Sex, Death, cult and celebrity’ are popular motifs in Daw's work although there are serious undertones and lacings of his dry sense of humour.

Daw is inspired by a cross section of artists including Bacon, Warhol, Dine, Velasquez, Davinci and Bosch as well as citing as idols contemporary painters including: Hernan Bas, Marcus Harvey, Hirst & Daniel Richter.

His debut solo show at Wieden and Kennedy was a sell-out establishing him a client base in the UK, Europe America; in addition he has had work commissioned by Diesel, Ralph Lauren, and Georgina Goodman.
