Biography

Kid Acne is a UK-based artist, illustrator, print-maker and emcee. His formative years were spent writing graffiti, self-publishing fanzines and making experimental Hip-Hop – invariably designing and printing the record sleeves by hand. The culmination of these interests informed the development of his own unique aesthetic, which he has translated into innumerable graphics, product designs, installations, animations and silk screen editions. A stalwart of the international Street Art movement, Kid Acne has painted large-scale murals across continents and exhibited work extensively over the past two decades. His art explores a variety of themes, from colloquialisms and typography, to fantasy, mythology and architecture. Rendered in a distinct illustrative style, Kid Acne’s work can be seen throughout the globe; from wheat-pastes in North America to museum walls in Western Australia. His images have adorned campaigns for some of the world’s leading brands, while the man himself continues to paint epic slogans in the back streets of South Yorkshire. And he still has acne.
