Lucas Dupuy
City & Guilds of London School of Art Award
2017/18
Lucas Dupuy creates abstracted works through a stylistic combination of painting, design and drawing. With the aim to focus strongly on shape and experimental digital imagery, Lucas brings forth a new language — one that he can relate to personally from his experiences with dyslexia.
Upon completing his award in September 2018, Lucas was developing a collaborative Art/Work Association event with Auto Italia based around his longstanding artistic interests in dyslexia and electronic music.
