Jeffrey Dennis is a painter, born in Colchester, who has lived and worked in London since graduating from the Slade School of Fine Art in 1980. His work has been exhibited internationally since the mid-1980s.
Jeffrey recently wrote about his paintings: 'My work is rooted in daily experience: how people move around, inhabit spaces and make sense of their daily routines.’
His past paintings have embedded glimpses of contemporary urban life within landscapes of processed peas, rotting fruit or Victorian wallpaper designs and, more recently, the 'bubblescape', an organic matrix which seems to offer the potential for continual mutation and evolution.
Jeffrey Dennis is also a Senior Lecturer in Fine Art at Chelsea College of Arts.
Dennis participated in the first round of the Art360 Programme, supported by Arts Council England, the Henry Moore Foundation, Art Fund and further Trusts and Foundations. The programme offered archival bursaries to 33 artists and estates.
