Albert
Albert (b.1962) creates large-scale pencil drawings depicting visions of imaginary buildings, homes, fences and structures. “I like to work with my hands. I’ve drawn for years on and off. Even as a child I was always scribbling something, but I didn’t take it seriously until I came to Bethlem Gallery where I was encouraged by the staff to take it further. Whilst I draw I imagine the building being constructed in brick and brought to life”.
His unique style and talent has been recognised and praised by Outsider Art collectors and institutions across Europe with his work now existing in public collections such as Pallant House Gallery in Chichester, Bethlem Museum in London, abcd Collection in Paris, LaM in Lille and the Museum of Everything in London.
