Ed Chapman (artist)


Ed Chapman , in Darwen, Lancashire is considered one of the worlds best mosaic artists. An awardwinning British artist known for his mosaics, along with Vik Muniz, Robert Silvers and others, Chapman is regarded as having reimagined the mosaic medium. He is known for expanding the possibilities of the medium and taking mosaics to new styles, incorporating numerous materials in his works often never used before. Though claiming to be selftaught and never having receiving any instruction he has also said both his parents were tough art disciplinarians, my father in sculpture and mother in painting and I suppose Ive mixed them up in my work. He is the son of artist Margaret Chapman who was from the Northern School along with L.S. Lowry.
