Richard ‘ french’ Sayer is an Artist & Illustrator originally from the UK who now resides and works from Melbourne, Australia. French’s iconic style has allowed him to create artwork across a wide range of fields from illustration and graphics for the Music industry to Advertising and fashion for the Skateboard industry. In his new exhibition ‘Brainfade’, French further explores the his classic dark illustration style with an injection of vivid fluorescent colour, propelling his artworks into a retro future fantasy.
‘Brainfade’ is influenced by in part by the black light metal posters of the 70s fused with French’s strong connection skate graphics language, creating a new world where the medieval meets science fiction. French exhibits continuously around the world in both group and solo exhibitions. Recently art directing a number of projects, brands and curating exhibitions.
