Simon McKellar studied Art and Design in mid-Eighties London, where he won the top national'Design and Art Direction' (D&AD) award. In the late Eighties (88), a principal director of a young'Greenpeace' approached him with a view to produce a series of vibrant environmental designs that would reflect the modern aesthetic: where'Greenpeace' wanted to be.
Considered so modern, the designs were taken on by U2's (merchandising) manager and distributed on merchandise via leading retail outlets throughout Europe. Moving to Japan in the nineties (93-2000) to practise internal energy arts at the'World Headquarters', in Tokyo, Simon then worked with leading design companies, brands and individuals, undertaking creative projects ranging from art and design, merchandising and interiors, to high - end structures and one-off pieces of organic furniture. A diverse client base ran from Levis Japan to IDEE, Tokyo's leading design hub. The original environmental paintings were exhibited there in 1995, at the'Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum'. The passage of time sees him now engaged in his current body of work; an abstract series reflecting on fundamental patterns that occur in the natural world.This item is in the category "Art\Art Prints".
