Lawrence James Bailey (b.1976) grew up in the post-industrial ruins of 1980’s Britain before studying Fine Art at the Hull School of Art and later at De Ateliers in Amsterdam. His interest in geography, history, counterculture, folklore, protest movements and his background in theatrical set design serve as reference in his drawings and sculptures. Peoples relationship with the landscape forms the core to this work – in particular how individuals can be historically connected to the land through deeply rooted folk stories, struggle and beliefs.

“I’m always fascinated in marginalised landscapes and no-mans-lands; areas on the edge of cities which are normally banished from our sense of what is pastoral or romantic. I depict these bastard spaces as being in flux, unstable, uncertain and mysterious, just like the people who thrive within them.”

Lawrence currently lives and works in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
