Richard Burton (b. 1984, London) graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2021. He was selected for Bloomberg New Contemporaries and was awarded an Abbey Fellowship in Painting at The British School at Rome. He lives and works in London, exhibiting regularly in the UK and abroad. Drawing inspiration from the novels of David Foster Wallace and Philip K. Dick, Richard's paintings mirror the enigmatic ambiance of dystopian science fiction. His work, located in the glow of an mis-en-scenes, delves into the anomie and isolation within the seated subjectivity of transport and cinema.
