Mickey Whitfield is a British born, visual artist who explores and documents his strikingly thought provoking ideas through the complex nature of the human expression and the redefining of the places they inhabit. Amongst his first works is the vibrant portraits series 'They're All Around Us', inspired by ceremonial aesthetics akin to African rituals. The project formed a perceptive inquiry into the thoughts and reflections of what can be discerned through the eyes of the native African mask, under the accelerating change of modernity and its predisposition that embodies an eternity of perseverance, preservation and renewal, as the source defining universal law.  His work cracks through the past and blissfully splinters into colour.

Whitfield a compassionate and emphatic individual with a keen sense of engagement and intellectual curiosity, is a self-taught artist who is formally known within the music fraternity as a highly accomplished and vastly experienced Marketing Executive. Set to chart a more independent path with visions of wider more distant horizons, a distilled sense of creative flow emerges through his broader visual and mixed media works with a luminous aura that successfully engages an active, culturally aware  dialogue.
