Art by

Sam Akroyd

Sam Akroyd is a painter specialising in portraiture.

The main body of his work is project based with a primary focus on community.

 

We are all members of communities, both by choice and by default.

These associations form a part of our personal identity but also form society.

Sam is interested in making paintings that collectively value these commonalities.

Social engagement plays a central role in the work, with the final artwork often taking the form of a recorded event.

Painting these communities recognises and appreciates the often unseen, overlooked network of contributions that join us together.
