Rob Wass

Rob Wass is a mixed media artist and photographer based in Hastings UK. His work explores the theme Organised Chaos and often depicts naturalistic scenes with a twist. By creating hypothetical rules using black ink and knocking those rules down with loosely applied watercolours Wass leaves the viewer with dynamic bold images that sometimes become so complex he can’t remember how he made them.

By creating hypothetical rules using black ink and knocking those rules down with loosely applied watercolours Wass leaves the viewer with dynamic bold images that sometimes become so complex he can’t remember how he made them.

Working with layers of ink, paint and silkscreen a conversation between dark and light begins, his rhythmical and intricate illustrations catch the viewers eye but look a little closer and you might find some hidden elements like a tiny spider that has spun a web the size of a tree or a dinosaur bone in the wing of an owl.

His passion for photography also plays a crucial role in his work. Armed with his camera Wass looks for patterns in the natural world, whether it be a murmuration of Starlings or the tiny veins on a leaf, everything is documented and these photographs often go on to become parts in his work.
