Conor Murgatroyd Biography

Conor Murgatroyd is a Bradford-born, London-based artist, known for colourful and structured paintings. Distinctively British in appearance and sense of humour, his art evokes a feeling of nostalgia and strives to, ‘make sense of the tangled web of influences, events and emotions that make up the existential human experience.’ 

Often likened to René Magritte and David Hockney, Murgatroyd’s art is inspired by his working-class roots, multiculturalism and the people and places he has encountered since moving to the capital.

In his paintings, Murgatroyd bring together characters and objects, both real and imagined, to inspire the observer to consider the raw beauty of everyday moments and things.
