An artist and lyricist with a uniquely compelling visual language, Cash Davidson’s paintings feature such diverse figures as King Henry VIII, Eliza Bennett and Ali G. Historical and popular cultural characters and the artist’s own family members meet animated gargoyles and mournful mythological creatures in otherworldly forests, cathedrals, desert islands and council estates; boldly rendered in vibrant, swirling colours.
Extending beyond painting, Nathan Cash Davidson’s work also includes writing and performing his own raps. The organic narrative development of his imagery is reflected in his use of the written and spoken word. For this event the artist will perform a rap entitled Bring forth The Condemned.
