From afar, it appears we are looking at antique artworks. 18th century prints. Hand-finished architectural drawings. Decorative woven tapestries.
But upon closer inspection, you find something subversive within the scene. A chaos among the order that the medium insists upon. This is the work of award-winning British artist, J. G. Fox.
In just the last year, Fox has been shortlisted for ten art prizes in London, receiving awards and commendations at the Hari Art Prize, the Archisource Drawing of the Year competition, and The London Art Biennale.
Fox’s quick rise to popularity could be attributed to the fact that his work appeals to many different sensibilities. Beautiful enough to speak to traditionalists; accomplished enough to win critical acclaim. Engaging enough to be appreciated immediately; deep enough to be discussed and analysed in intellectual circles.
