Agent X, cultural explorer and agent of the unknown, is an emerging artist who creates experimental, multimedia collages, paintings, and 2D artwork. Described as ‘Pop Art with thought,’ Agent X juxtaposes pop culture, technology, fashion, and music in visually complex images expressing the anxieties of the global, post-modern world and the dark side of consumerist, media-obsessed culture. His work occupies a unique intersection between the aesthetics and philosophy of Futurism, the social critique of the Dada movement, and contemporary artistic movements ranging from Pop Art to Super-flat. The cultural issues of racism, sexism, power, money, and the urban environment are common themes found in his work. The chaotic style in his pieces reflect his passionate feelings of these relevant issues.
Based in Vancouver, Agent X grew up in Connecticut and studied in New Haven and Atlanta. He was the top recipient at the Curious Duke Curious Pie Show, and he has been a finalist in numerous prestigious art contests. Agent X’s work has been exhibited in art meccas all around the world, including London, New York,Singapore, San Francisco, Spain,Amsterdam and Toronto.
