About
b.o.b: 14/7/1978
ramsgate,kent.

These claustrophobic tendencies engulf the viewer so they are all consumed. As we gaze intently at them a combination of senses unfold and question. This questioning is the most important factor of the work, from the everyday issues of beauty being skin deep to a beautiful woman becoming a freakishly bizarre creature. … Read More
