Following the hugely successful inaugural show REPEAT AFTER ME at Hang-Up Gallery in August 2017, London-based artist Tim Fishlock (FKA Oddly Head) has gone on to create sell-out series of work and collaborated on several exciting projects and exhibitions. He has shown work in prestigious institutions in London including the Design Museum and the Royal Academy, where two of his works were selected by Grayson Perry for the 250th RA Summer Show. Fishlock makes work that shrewdly comments on the fragile state of society and our place within it. Through his vibrant, text-based paintings, the artist reflects on our uneasy relationship with technology and how we are being subjugated by our own invention. Whilst honing in on the dreaded compulsions of social media and our own existential plight, there is a dark humour that runs through much of Fishlock’s work. The joy of words and the value of a good pun are always evident.
