Beastman
Beastman is an artist based in Sydney. Influenced by the beauty and symbolism behind nature’s repetitive geometric patterns and organic lines, Beastman's tightly detailed, often symmetrical paintings depict a parallel world of hope and survival inhabited by his beastlike yet beautiful and emotive characters. These instantly recognisable and loveable deities have spawned from the elements of the earth, as if nature has come to life in a way we could never have imagined.
One of the most distinctive and prolific emerging artists in Australia and founder and editor of the online art publication [weAREtheIMAGEmakers], Beastman has exhibited extensively throughout Australia and overseas. He also curates art exhibitions and projects and has been commissioned to create artwork for various brands including Element, Huawei, The Art Park, Tiger, Lowlife of London, Hyundai and Smirnoff. Beastman was recently named Best Artist at the 2010 Sydney Music, Arts & Culture (SMAC) Awards and his large public mural aerosol works can be found all over Australia and in London, Berlin, Hong Kong and New York.
