About the artist:

Michael Iveson (b. 1984, Northern Ireland) lives and works in London. Iveson is a painter, printmaker and installation artist whose works investigates social divisions, the interplay between the abstract space of advertising, fear and desire and their concrete manifestations through status, consumption and the lived environment. Iveson takes as his material the Financial Times’ How To Spend It weekend supplement magazine; he carefully dissolves the printed inks to create his own pigments that are subsequently deployed in painted and printed works. The partially erased magazine pages from which Iveson extracts his pigments are effectively his palettes, and are displayed as independent works pinned to the wall. Previous series have seen Iveson produce conceptual and site-specific architectural interventions in painted bubblewrap, experimental printmaking, and image-to-text artificial intelligence models. Iveson’s recent solo exhibition anon took place at Foreign & Domestic in December 2024.
