Contemporary artist James Bates finds inspiration in the most unlikely of places from junk shops to Disney films, scrap heaps to sketch books, Bates’ wide artistic scope is reflected in his multi media art pieces, which range from illustration to animation, advertising to graphic design. Bates’ aesthetic is singular his prints are bold and fearless, mindful of composition and colour in a striking way. ‘Erratic Zoom’ is a bricolage of erratic and eccentric parts colour and pattern assemble in this chaotic print, filled with icons and images, all jumbled together in a dynamic array. Compelling and hypnotic with a distinctly 1960s acid trip essence ‘Erratic Zoom’ is saturated with visual power and aesthetic prowess.
