BOBBY NIXON

Briefly, describe your art practice?
My work is rooted in 2d art making, focusing on painting, drawing and printmaking to depict figurative scenes. The subject matter of my work attempts to push dark and hidden aspects of society to the forefront.

What inspires you to make art work?
I’m motivated by a fascination with the human condition and the history of humans. Creating artwork allows me to contribute to this conversation and engage with contemporary culture.
 
Explain the basis of your art project for The Bonkers Contemporary Show
Over the last couple of years I’ve been focused on printmaking, for this project I’m planning to change things up and work on a series of large-scale monochromatic paintings.

Who are your role models artistically? 
The work of Bosch, Bruegel and Durer are a constant inspiration for their ability to combine skill, vision and subject matter. 

What do you think is your most AMAZING achievement in art today?
Consistently making the work I want to.

Describe your art in 5 words.
Dark, bold, detailed, figurative and apocalyptic.
