TED
The artist TED, born in Munich in 1985, first attended Cambridge Art and Science College and Gordonstoun School in Scotland, where he focussed on art and design. He then went on to study both subjects at London Metropolitan University.
"I do pop art and splash art paintings that are colourful and full of energy". There is no better way to describe TED's work than in the artist's own words. First, there are works on large canvases, which become vivid, abstract colour explosions through the deliberate spraying and splashing of acrylic paint - quite literally, as TED loves to burst colour-filled balloons on the canvas. Then, there are the works in which the artist pays homage to American popular culture and comics. Both categories of work are characterised by an impressive joy of colour and vitality.
