Guy Train’s cacophonic work is inspired by the toxic digital age, using Photoshop and unconventional materials as if created by a monkey straight out the jungle, smashing and mashing.

The works are often driven by instinct, and this leaves room for mistakes - mistakes which often act as jump-off points for the next piece.

As an artist, Guy mimics the archetypal role of a hunter gatherer, but instead of scavenging the land for sustenance or harnessing fire, he slumps in a chair scrolling through Ebay for scrap technology or toys… That is until the Mailman finally delivers his kill. It is at this moment the artist springs into life, throwing all his unconventional materials and energy into intense, love it or hate it, emetic and migraine inducing works.
