Adam
Pixel artist who creates images within the technical constraints of the ZX Spectrum computer of the 1980s. The Spectrum hardware quirkily divided the screen into lots of 8×8 squares with up to two colours in each square, so the art based on it has a very distinctive look.

riles, (You) is jones!
Artist combining different styles, mixing figurative with the surreal, making works that are really hard to categorise. It’s like a mash-up of impressionism and 1980s/1990s pop culture.
