Darren Bryant

As an artist, I work with the materiality of the paint first and foremost, and foreground its presence in my work. As such, my work has evolved over the years towards becoming progressively more abstract; however, it still retains its illustrative element in my preoccupation with landscapes and space. Originally from London, England, I have now settled in Toronto after almost a decade spent working and traveling around the world. Prior to my travels, I studied Graphic Design and went on to study Animation at university where I produced several experimental films and documentaries. After University, I worked as a freelance artist in Cardiff, London, and Manchester, producing murals, illustrations, and various other projects. I\'ve been exhibiting my work in numerous Toronto galleries and events for the past 5 years.
