Biography
Copyright’s striking work often focuses on strong women, surrounded by iconic symbolism, yet his bold graffiti style adds an element of brutality to his artwork. Whilst studying photography and video production at a local college, Copyright was inspired by the endless opportunities there were to create his own artwork. Soon he was creating paintings by making stencils out of his own photographs, and later he took to the streets to use the walls of the city as his canvas. Before long, his work was discovered by art collectors and gallerists and his paintings have now been exhibited all over the world, from London to Tokyo. His work has been featured in publications such as Harper's Bazaar and he designed a custom cover for Reload Magazine. Copyright’s unique style has garnered him a celebrity following, with a number of Premier League footballers becoming collectors of his work. Copyright lives in Bristol with his wife Gemma Compton, who he has collaborated on several works with, including the exhibition 'Union', which celebrated their marriage.
