About James Roper
"After graduating from Manchester School of Art in 2005 James Roper first gained international recognition within the Pop Surrealism movement of the mid-2000's. Roper exhibited his artwork globally, including solo shows in New York, London, San Francisco, Barcelona and Milan.
Roper initially garnered attention for his vibrant anime and Baroque-inspired paintings, which played a pivotal role in high-profile collaborations with Nike, MTV, Converse, Facebook, Formula 1 and Linkin Park.
In response to the increasing mental noise of our hyper-modern culture Roper has now shifted his focus, away from the exaggerated technicoloured imagery of his early career.
His new body of work "Relics of the Wild" are intricate digital collages crafted from his own photography of the flora and fauna he encounters whilst exploring the British countryside.
The works aim is to inspire a deeper connection with nature, urging viewers to visually slow down, quieten the mind and rediscover the beauty in their everyday encounters with the wild world."
About "Relics of the Wild" series
Each piece in the "Relics of the Wild" series is crafted from my own photography.
These high resolution digital collages combine imagery of the abundant flora and fauna that the I encounter whilst out exploring the British countryside, predominantly around where I live, in the Peak District.
In an age abound by environmental destruction I believe a deep beholding of the natural world is of vital importance.
My intention for this new body of work is to encourage a more engaged level of connection and attention to our day to day encounters with the wild world, that we can all very easily pass by and miss.

"We often forget that we are nature. Nature is not something separate from us. So when we say that we have lost our connection to nature, we've lost our connection to ourselves."
