Since 1994 he has exclusively worked in black and white. Speaking about the monochrome nature of his work, he said: "Working in black and white breaks the link with naturalism and allows the painter to operate without instinctively judging how 'real' an image is. |

The paintings are nostalgic towards a lost age of youthful innocence and dreams. My work is like a zeitgeist of a close relative one never new or a lost love, perhaps this person was dead long before one was ever born. The work therefore holds a fondness to places that these past lives were lived out in, so close to ones self, yet so far away. They lament on a kind of love and longing to meet ones fore fathers and express a shared inherited passion towards alpine rock and pine trees. |

Through my work I reflect upon dichotomies such as scientific knowledge versus intuitive insight, the notion of Nature as Other, alienation, the animal as symbol and metaphor, psychoanalysis, dreams and fairy tales. |

Photographic artist-documentary and conceptual documentary
I experiment with the representation of documentary images to highlight issues concerning our social environment & everyday living, often working in collaboration with specific communities. My practice is also focused on examining the documentary photograph’s relationship and role within representation in the form of deploying different strategies of representation to elicit a response from an audience. Being aware of the politics of representation enables me to situate the documentary photograph as part of a larger debate involving visual culture, the dissemination of images & the role of photography in today’s media saturated world |

Andy ‘Seize’ Quammie graduated with a BA Hons in Painting @ Central Saint Martin's in 1996. Born and raised in Hackney, Andy belongs at the cutting edge of the 21st century's Avant Garde movement; his work embodies all the vibrancy and optimism of 1980s Graffiti art, rejuvenated by a constant barrage of fresh and innovative ideas. Feverishly hawked by lifestyle magazines like Vogue and Attitude, who have devloped something of a penchant for decking out their models with his trademark, 80s-style Graffitied denim jackets. Seize is no ordinary St. Martin’s graduate.
Having already achieved cult-like status on the Graffiti scene, Seize finds it impossible to repress his inherently creative spi |
