Join artist Danny Fox for a unique and interactive insight into his studio practice of researching and responding to art historical imagery.
In this session, Danny will discuss how he bridges the past and present in his work, drawing on a wealth of research as well as lived experience. You will then have the chance to create your own artistic responses, engaging with historical and contemporary artworks through your own personal lens.
All materials will be provided, just bring yourself, your curiosity and your imagination.

Artist Bio
Danny Fox (b. 1986, St Ives, Cornwall, UK)
Born and raised in St Ives, Cornwall, a coastal county in South West England, Danny Fox’s paintings conjure heartfelt and unflinching portrayals of home, history and myth. Captured with tragedy, promise, heat, violence, affection and humour, his work celebrates the authenticity and colour of lives lived against the grain. Taking the position of both observer and participant, his work exudes the emotional realism of lived experience, from good cheer to cold and bitter detachment. He lives and works in Nancledra, Cornwall, UK
