Will Teather
British artist Will Teather is known for creating contemporary images that reveal an adventurous imagination combined with a mastery of traditional skills.
The artist’s figurative paintings and drawings often depict curious characters caught up in uncanny situations. Influenced by magical-realism and lifting motifs from diverse sources such as Flemish still life, baroque art and Weimar painters, the artist enters into conversation with the history of painting with the aim of bringing a present-day sensibility to the table.
Over the last fifteen years, he has been the recipient of numerous grants and bursaries, with his paintings and drawings featuring in over 200 gallery exhibitions across the UK and overseas. Recent venues to display his work include Underdog London, RJD Gallery New York, Red Dot Miami, London Contemporary Art, Aberdeen Art Gallery, Vermont’s Catherine Dainich Gallery, Hollywood’s Sur Le Mur Gallery, Norwich Castle Museum, Edinburgh’s Open Eye Gallery, RH Gallery New York and Eton Contemporary Fine Art. He has been guest artist for events such as Artrooms London, Artwars and Malonny Art Forum, Lithuania.
