Richie Culver, a versatile artist drawing from his upbringing in Northern Britain, crafts a unique iconography that brims with raw forms inspired by personal experiences. From local dog races to barbershop vignettes and even snapshots of Princess Diana, his work is a collage of intimate observations and snippets of quotidian life, often interwoven with quotes from acquaintances. Culver's art, characterized by its punk-infused, rudimentary style, boldly confronts the sociopolitical schisms dividing the Northern and Southern regions of the UK.

In his debut solo exhibition, "No One Knows Me Like Dawn From The Job Centre" (2018), Culver's pieces offered a poignant reflection on the aftermath of Brexit. Since then, his artistic trajectory has evolved towards a more minimalist and abstract direction, expanding beyond traditional mediums like photography and painting to embrace sculpture and even a fashion line in collaboration with Topshop.

Culver's creations have garnered recognition in esteemed institutions such as the Tate Modern and have found homes in the collections of cultural hubs like Soho House and notable figures including British songstress Adele.
