Steve Wright is a contemporary painter based in London. Born in Bath, England in 1975, he studied Fine Art at Wimbledon School of Art and Newcastle University, gaining his MFA in 2001. His work has been included in exhibitions around the UK and in the USA. Solo exhibitions have taken place in London, Leeds, and Cambridge, including ‘Perpetual Motion’ in August 2025.
His recent paintings are ‘cosmic abstractions’, transforming found objects and images into intensely coloured motifs that evoke astronomical phenomena. Inspired by spiral galaxies and space stations, his recent works employ rotational symmetry to create a sense of movement. Earlier works depict vehicles and other objects, in relation to the space around them or the ground plane, creating a sense of suspension in place and time. |
