Artist duo STATIC are made up of friends Tom Jackson and Craig Evans who since 2006, have been producing bold original work abstractly exploring duality and conflict through figurative assemblages.
From stencil and spray paint to vivid collages with feathers and glass; STATICs aesthetic is as dynamic as it is intricate. Blending pattern with portraiture, their signature style is heavily influenced by modern ‘tribes’ and mythologies.
Mixed media creations primarily examine perception with colours and shapes seemingly suspended through the use of layered materials. Metaphorically however, they challenge the viewer to consider their own cultural identity or ’tribe’.
Through iconic signs and symbols charged with their own histories, STATIC are able to create engaging associations with the way our culture both exists and differentiates itself with those that have come before it.
Exhibitions to date include UK, Japan, Singapore, Italy, the US, India and Russia.
Tom & Craig are also founding artists of the East London based community art project Wood Street Walls
