Dusty O was one of the most visible and popular faces on the London Club scene for over 30 years. As a drag performer, DJ, writer, fashion muse and club promoter he carved out a glittering career which took him all over the world leading to a host of TV, magazine and stage appearances. However, five years ago, Dusty gave up performing and started painting. His work reveal a glimpse of his former life and mirror his self-confessed wild eccentricity.
Dusty explains, “I focused my attention on my social influencers of the time and the people whose lives turned out to guide my own route so forcefully. I used the colour and techniques that were immediately to hand, and these enabled my paintings to speak. Some of the work has no story. It’s a reflection of a moment that is personal to me.“
Dusty continued, “Colour as always plays a huge part in establishing the emotional tempo and is as important as the main visual focus itself. `the complications and natural evolution of a paint pour seems to somehow set the scene for the idea and background is as important as foreground on many of the pieces.”
