At Nicholls Art Group we are delighted to represent Ian Berry who is recognised as a leading artist under 30 and a top influencer in the denim world. Ian's talent is truly extraordinary and he has created commissioned portraits of notable figures such as Giorgio Armani, Debbie Harry, Jennifer Saunders and Ayrton Senna. His works have been exhibited internationally with sell-out solo shows.
Ian is originally from Huddersfield, UK, a town with a rich textile history. His art began with a simple observation of a pile of old jeans and their contrasting shades of blue. This experiment quickly turned him into one of the most talked-about young artists in the world.
At first glance, his works appear to be blue-toned photographs or indigo oil paintings. However, even up close, many viewers don't realise they are actually looking at layers of denim jeans. His medium is not just about using old jeans; it is his way of seeing the world, his "paint." The depth, texture, and careful crafting of each piece of denim create a painterly tone that captures the essence of urban life.
Do view some exceptional images of Ian’s work on our website www.nichollsart.com also you can easily subscribe there for our special VIP Events and News, and enjoy this art-life journey with us!
Best regards
