Teddy is a past high school teacher of the
Visual Arts with a certificate in Fine Art from the
University of Cambridge. He is trained in film
and has toured as a Director of Photography
across the globe.
From an early age Teddy knew he was
artistically inclined, therefore, everything he
did at major career points in his life led to more
artistic development.
He considers himself to be multidisciplinary in
his artistic practice. A combination of
traditional paintings, performance art, cinema
and photography coming together to
make visual and conceptual representations of
the surreal and abstract thoughts he projects.
His art is all about creating something that
people can relate to.
“My ultimate goal is to create something that
appeals to their imagination so that when they
look at my work, it’ll leave a lasting impression
on their mind”, he said.
He has no favorites in his collection. He works
in series and every series does something
different, based on the time it was created and
the purpose for which it was created.
“What I would say is that, there are moments
when different pieces of my work impact
audiences in ways I never thought my work
could have. It’s these small moments in time
that feel very special just knowing my work was
able to be that impactful.”
Exhibitions to date: St. Vincent and The
Grenadines, Canada and the Bahamas.
“I believe the science to
exploring your imagination,
the geometry of bringing your
art, your creation to life all
rests within the artist’s ability
to express his thoughts in
spite of all kinds of criticisms.
Understanding first, that
discovery of any kind requires
you first to experiment with
the resources available to you.”
