Dan petley

Dan Petley is a Bristol/ Gloucester based artist. His studio practice produces artworks and exhibitions merging formalised distillations of religious imagery with lost and discarded items to explore mythological narratives. This has evolved into a multidisciplinary reciprocal process that explores hierarchy and cohesion in the creation of communal public work. He is a clear and articulate public speaker and has vast experience with learning support for young people.

Working in a variety of media, improvisation and immediacy contrasts with themes of continuity and authorship. Through a dedicated collector’s impulse, a fascination with folk art and psychedelia is exposed.
