Andrew was born deaf in a hearing family and attended hearing schools. He believes that this has made him the artist he is – when you can’t quite connect with an audible world, you become good at seeing.

Shaped by a life spent navigating between silence and sound, inclusion and exclusion, Andrew brings a perspective that is both deeply personal and broadly resonant. The aim of his work is to stand as both expression and resistance: a visual language forged in silence, speaking loudly against injustice. He knows what it’s like to stand on the outside and he doesn’t want that for anyone else.

As such, his work carries strong environmental and political themes, driven by a deep sensitivity to imbalance and disconnection. Themes of ecological fragility, human impact, and systemic inequality run throughout. Each piece becomes a form of witnessing and reporting - an attempt to make visible the things that are ignored, silenced, or brushed aside.

The stone used in his work is always reclaimed, salvaged, re-used. His aim is to create as little environmental impact as possible in the making.

He never wants his work to be passive decoration. It’s a protest.
