Daddy Street Fox
Daddy Street Fox is a London-based street artist whose art is inspired by nature, especially the majestic fox and other wildlife that visits his garden in Hackney.
He is passionate about the protection of urban wildlife and green spaces in our cities. He has always enjoyed collecting and pressing leaves, flowers, tree bark and seed pods, which he now uses in his art.
He has a background in fashion, pattern-cutting, garment-construction and tailoring. He worked in menswear tailoring for the opera after completing a BA(Hons) Degree in Costume for the Performing Arts at the London College of Fashion.
Fabrics, textile design, sequins, beads and other surface decoration can often be seen on his foxes. He also finds reusable items for his work at flea markets, car boot sales and antique fairs.
He also has a love of religious art, architecture and ecclesiastical textile design, which is also visible in his work along with a fascination for graveyards, spiritualism and the occult.
He does paste-up street art and hopes to continue to show original work in exhibitions. He aims to move on to 3D work and street murals while exploring other avenues for his art.
