Jonathan Lawes: Full Circle

Jonathan Lawes is an artist and designer based in South East London, UK.

Jonathan's artistic journey began in Salisbury, before undertaking a Foundation Diploma in Art at Arts University Bournemouth followed by a BA in Printed Textiles and Surface Pattern Design at Leeds Arts University. He then spent almost a decade living and working in Berlin, before returning to the UK in 2018 to develop his practice further.

Jonathan creates prints with a distinctly graphic edge, reflecting his love of geometry, shape and pattern. He has a keen eye for nuance and layering, paying close attention to colour and detail. Abstract compositions are formed organically and develop over time. As an artist, he has a genuine and enduring enthusiasm for the screen printing process, which he is always seeking to evolve.

Jonathan has exhibited widely and has worked with an extensive list of clients including COS, The Conran Shop, Gandia Blasco, Petit-Pli and Joseph Joseph.
