Biography
A fine-art painter since 2002, FIVE favours a bold aesthetic over political commentary. His figurative murals, neon sculpture and paintings feature dynamic compositions and vivid contrasting colours.
Resume
Having produced a series of neon-influenced paintings and murals, in 2014 he was inspired to produce real neon pieces. Under the mentorship of master glassblower, Gerald Collard, FIVE developed and perfected the skill of glass tube bending. He exhibited his first neon works in 2016. While his painting work affects his approach to design with neon, his experience with neon affects his understanding and use of color and light. There is a communication between the two mediums taking place with each consequent work. FIVE has exhibited work in Canada, United States, Estonia, Germany, Ireland and Israel.
