THE PLATFORM  

Born in Singapore, raised in London, Lawrence Perry now works out of his camden studio after graduating from the Slade School of Fine Art. Inspired by the British Modernists and Pop artists, Perry Incorporates a bold use of colour theory and a keen sense of abstraction when painting domestic scenes. Mainly working in acrylic paint, the artist uses his practice as a way of investigating themes such as identity, mental health and sexuality. Lawrence first came to the public eye in 2016 when his work as an in-house artist for an anti-Brexit lobbyist group was picked up by British GQ. He has gone on to have solo shows including ‘Merely A Dream” in Covent Garden and “Don’t Tell The Boys” in Antwerp, amongst various other group shows in London. The artist has been noted by Hunger magazine as “one of the most promising artists of the moment” with his work since featuring in Alessandro Michele’s campaign for Gucci, “Gucci, The Ritual”. Lawrence is establishing himself as part of the next generation of British Pop Art, having been mentored by the late great artist, Duggie Fields.
