Real name: Straiph Wilson

Effective period / Period of releases: 2005

I am a self-taught contemporary Scottish artist who makes art independently of the art world canon. My work remains relatively obscure but accessible.
My practice is the reactive agitation from my long working career as a technician in the field of behavioural ecology and evolutionary biology; this encompasses the study of organic diversity, including its origins, dynamics, maintenance and consequences. I'm forcibly blurring the boundaries between associations of ritual, power and speciation by accentuating mysticism and folklore as an extension and amplification of traditional religious views. My practice attempts to go beyond or behind customary established dogma in order to satisfy a need which certain individuals have to experience the intersection between science, religion and belief.
