Artist Profile: James Wright (working with artists Alex Misick and Max Prus)

Name/Pseudonym:

James Wright

Permanent working location:
Glasgow, Scotland

Working practice:
My interest is mainly focused on the human condition, humour and the chaotic this is mainly portrayed through drawing, performance and video work. A reoccurring theme in my work is props and costumes, which I use to portray characters, which are created by disrupting the mundane ever so slightly to create the absurd and the extraordinary. I have been focusing recently more on collaborations with other artists such as Richard McMaster, Vickie McDonald, James William Farlam, the bands Ultimate Thrush and Divorce. Thus creating a much broader range of work such as making music videos and animation.
