Biography
Heavily influenced by the Underground Press Syndicate, the fluxus movement, propaganda and the manipulation of information. Zoot's work is a feast of typography, misinformation and surreal, grainy halftones. Focusing mainly on print making, specifically silk screening and working on pretty much anything other than canvas, Zoot experiments with mixed media and found surfaces to create a depth of colour and texture, overlaying appropriated text and subverted imagery.With roots in the street art scene and a portfolio of previous art, design and animation work; Zoot has been producing both public paintings/installations and studio based gallery work for over a decade, constantly developing his technique and mastering as many new media as possible, producing a unique and unmistakable style.
Over the past 12 months Zoot has exhibited in several exhibitions in the UK, US and Italy; created a large scale installation for the Shambala festival; co-curated the Line Steppers exhibition, as well as getting street work up in several European cities.
