    Los Angeles, CA

    Describing himself as ‘sweater obsessed’, Los Angeles based artist Travis Fish, takes his love of sweaters to the next level, utilising branded sweaters and sport hoodies as his canvas. Fascinated in how items of clothing function in society, Fish monumentalises each item transforming them into icons in their own right. His large-scale paintings often evoke the fabric of the garments, allowing him to control the intersection between art and fashion. 

  • Travis Fish’s brightly hued paintings also feature caricature portrait of celebrities including Hip-Hop trio, Migos; declared unequivocally as ‘the greatest of all time’ by Fish. Fish garners inspiration from Instagram and often names his large acrylic works after popular fashion designers like Versace / Kith and LV/Dior. Fish prioritises spontaneity throughout his practice, replacing clean lines with fluid edges and intentional mistakes.
