  • Summary

  • The Reem Gallery podcast presents a conversation with @prestonpaperboy ahead of his solo show at Reem Gallery Soho (Ham Yard Village, W1D 7LT) titled 'Lonely crowded place'.

    Born and raised in Essex, England, Nathan Preston studied art at school before studying for a degree in architecture at the University of Brighton. After a decade of working as an architect, and painting on the side, painting became his day job. The work in question is Neo-expressionist portraiture; these carefully composed works utilise multiple mediums (charcoal, oil pastels, oil paints) to layer facial features, text, and motifs, and create a narrative that is influenced by street art, pop culture, and the artist’s own experiences with mental illness. Having exhibited in Hong Kong, Atlanta, and Miami, among other cities he is returning to London to show his new collection titled ‘Lonely crowded place’ at Reem Gallery Soho, in Ham Yard Village. 

    The private view is on the 16th of November from 6 pm, and the exhibition runs until the 3rd of December.
