Julian Quaye

Julian Alexander Quaye’s current works illustrate his love of ironic juxtaposition, and his interest in Victorian and Edwardian colours, with his series of human-form animal portraits. A typical example of his work is ‘The Aviator’: a penguin in early period pilot’s uniform at the North Pole. Or to put it another way, a bird that can’t fly dressed in flying kit and standing at the wrong end of the world.

Within three months of exhibiting for the first time he was picked up to be included in two contemporary urban auctions alongside Damian Hirst and Banksy by Dreweatts in 2012.

For private commissions, murals and sign writing get in touch. Lots of prints of furry felines and pugnacious pooches available on the web site. Plus the odd pesky bi-polar penguin and a pampered panda.
