Perspective
The impulse guy for some, a cultural explorer for others, a modern philosopher for those who know him, an agent of the unknown as he likes to introduce himself.
His style occupies a unique intersection between the aesthetics of Futurism, the social critique of the Dada movement, and contemporary artistic movements. The phenomena of pop culture, technology, fashion, music, politics, and race are central to his experimental, multimedia collages, paintings, and 2D artwork.
This charismatic and diverse artist has won multiple international honours and he is being named among '12 Artists to invest in now', by New Blood Art Gallery in London. Like a real agent he doesn't like to be photographed a lot and if you ask him nicely he will even produce his art certificate for you to see!Curated by

About the Product
A figure strolls through the streets of New York City, dimly visible beneath a hazy surface of paint smudges as if seen through a shower of raindrops. Is this Raymond Babbitt, hero of the cult film Rain Man, or merely an anonymous wanderer in a downpour? That’s for you to decide, but one thing is for sure: Agent X’s innovative approach generates a beautiful interplay of light and dark, a delicate reciprocity of the figurative and abstract, and a fluid quality that seems to wash across the striated surface of the image, for a truly breathtaking work of contemporary art.
