JACK HUGHES
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Jack Hughes is a Welsh artist. He holds a BA in Fine Art from the Arts University Bournemouth (2018) and currently resides in London. He specializes in creating large-scale oil paintings characterized by bold under-painting and contrasting colors. Initially exploring existential themes, Hughes has transitioned his artistic focus towards vivid, densely saturated depictions of his upbringing. His current work is firmly rooted in his childhood experiences, drawing from his dreams and memories to evoke a sense of nostalgia. Hughes' creative process now often begins with his dreams, which serve as the inspiration for his paintings. He maintains a dream diary, documenting dreams connected to his personal memories of people and places.
