* Stephen Prior is an Australian artist, author and illustrator whose work explores connection, individuality and the spaces between them.

His geometric artworks begin as constructed three-dimensional forms, which he deconstructs and reconnects with fine lines. The resulting images explore a tension that has followed Stephen throughout a career lived across cultures: the desire to belong while retaining a sense of individuality.

Originally from Australia, Stephen studied art and design at the University of Adelaide before a creative career took him through Zurich, Budapest, Amsterdam, Barcelona and Seoul. Living and working across different cultures became an important influence on his visual language and his interest in connection, separation and harmony.

His work combines oblique perspective, geometric forms and a distinctive palette influenced by Northern Europe and South Korea.

Stephen's work has been exhibited in Seoul  and is held in private collections in Korea, Hong Kong, Australia, Spain and the Netherlands.

Stephen also writes and illustrates picture books. His children's work can be found at sprior.com
