About the artist

Joshua Perkin (b. 1990, Shuckburgh, England) was raised on a farm 150 km north of London, however, he has been based in Spain since 2013. Prior to the pandemic, Joshua split his time between painting, predominantly in Spain and the Balearic Islands, and working on international skatepark projects, spending large amounts of time in Africa, the Middle East, and southern Asia. These travels naturally affected Joshua’s artistic research on various levels, and subsequently led to an investigation into traditional concepts of labor and its relationship with artistic production, which was later formalized in an MA in Artistic Production and Investigation at the University of Barcelona, completed in 2019.

A myriad of abstracted visual references taken from all over the world merge into the painter’s imagined scenes, leaving us with a diverse yet distinctive painted universe, generally void of any factual representation of a certain geographical location or people, rather creating a unique painted universe within itself.
