Sri McKinnon
SRI is an artist/illustrator of dual heritage who draws upon the experience of this mixed background as a significant influence on her artwork. Absorbing inspiration from a diverse spectrum of visual and cultural references, SRI is interested in exploring ideas of cultural diversity, identity and mixed heritage.
Following a keen interest in all aspects of graffiti and street art, as well as traditional and contemporary illustration; folk arts, art nouveau and anime, these eclectic and dynamic influences are woven together to produce a fresh, organic and distinctive feminine style.
Current successes include being invited to participate in a mural for Selfridges Department store in association with The London Design Festival (as part of Miss Led’s all-female collective), exhibiting with The Urban Art Show in Shoreditch, and likewise as featured artist at ‘Heavy Pencil’, The Institute of Contemporary Art’s brand new live art and music event.
