about
etchedbright is a contemporary artist based in the uk
in 2023 he presented a new body of work at the wales millennium centre in cardiff as part of the dathliad cymru africa festival, showcasing innovative pictographic techniques and celebrating his welsh-caribbean heritage
his works stage emotionally charged everyday surfaces, re-animating them with energetic and textural mark-making. etchedbright is best known for the striking imagery of his ongoing primitiv series (2020). inspired by graffiti and vernacular art the series sets a contemporary stage for the primal materiality of archaic visual cultures
