Artist Focus: Philip Rylands

Born and bought up in Warwickshire, I graduated in Fine Art, sculpture in 1993 at Staffordshire University before moving South and exploring painting.

In 2002 I left full time work, able to concentrate fully on corporate and private commissions, as well as exhibiting my own work. Since then I have shown and sold my work both in the UK and internationally.

My style and techniques are continuously developing, although the basic premise of my work remains the same; working from a personal archive of old and new photographs that serve as reminders of events, people and places. To this end, my latest project, 99 Objects, is a collection of same size small works that thoroughly explore this theme, along with an ongoing blog that explains the origins of each piece.
