Description:
Mr Mead describes Bowl as nothing but a ‘dunce farmyard owl’. Like most of the characters Bowl is an outcast from society, but is particularly lacking in the brains department.
Mr Mead’s terror and intrigue for animals dressed as humans stems from his childhood. Deciding to embrace his fear, he has developed his ink based style to create dark inhuman characters blending the animal, human and mechanic, a practice he nicknames ‘Bio-Mechanical Anthropomorphism’.
Working on large pieces of MDF with the smallest medium he can find, a dip pen. Mr Mead cross hatches and stipples until the piece is to his obsessive satisfaction.
After studying Animation in Bournmouth, Mr Mead went onto develop his traditional drawing practice. He currently works from Jamaica Street Studios in Bristol and regularly exhibits with Antlers, including his solo project - Dark Suits in April 2011.
