#Art of the Subconscious
Originally created in 1987 while attending the Opera House nightclub, these pen-and-ink drawings began as small sketches, often just 2–5mm, executed on scraps of paper without looking at the surface.
They emerged directly from the environment—shaped by the music, the crowd, and the energy of the club as much as by the moment itself.
Produced in miniature during live events, the drawings were later scaled up as banners, framed works, and stage pieces, appearing not only on the Opera House stage, the venue they were conceived, but in venues such as the Moscow Club, Crucial Gallery, and Blenheim Gallery, as well as in The Face magazine.
Many designs were subsequently adapted for limited-edition T-shirts sold across London, including shops such as Way-In at Harrods, Joseph (Tricot), Floyd (Bristol), Dickie Dirts, Yankee Doodle, and Camden Market.
The drawings have recently been revisited as part of the Sweet Harmony – Rave Today installation at the Saatchi Gallery, and are now being reinterpreted as new works.
Selected images are available as limited-edition prints and hand-finished acrylic sculptures, continuing the dialogue between club culture, visual experimentation, and social memory.
