BIOG:
Stylistically influenced by his involvement from an early age with Graffiti culture, his works reflect the spontaneity and immediacy of this practice, embracing informal forms of expressivity and appropriating its language of activism. Earlier works addressed the competing forces of nature versus technology, taking the form of hand painted large scale stickers, posters and paintings of natural life forms which sometimes appeared on the streets of London; these works were a way of nature usurping and reclaiming these city scapes, which were once its home. Maurice’s latest works continue his investigation of these ideas and have included large format prints comprising of Maurice’s photography with drawing and digital additions, wall and canvas paintings, collage, and large scale fabric and cardboard sculptures. Recent solo exhibitions have explored the conflicting notions of darkness and light, scientific progress and nonsensical consumerism and the beginnings and ends of life. Reminders of our current state of detachment from Mother Nature, Maurice’s work ultimately reflects upon the interconnectedness of ecological, cosmic and spiritual systems.
