Raised in Doncaster, U.K., by a trio of strong women with an appreciation for creativity, Welland’s mum, grandmother and auntie informed his initial interest in art. Welland kicked off his career with a degree in Fine Arts from Sheffield Hallam in 2007, before joining the luxury division of M&C Saatchi, and working across various boutique design studios in his native UK. His background is in graphic design and that’s what adds to his neverending visual collages of shapes, colours and forms. “I create works that celebrate the idea of togetherness, connecting and being human. My work is informed by cultures, people and ideas coming together as a collage of positive energy, shape and form and embracing imperfection”.
