‘Roy’s People Art Fair introduces new Live Installation ‘Perception of People’
This unique installation, featured in the entrance hall of the fair, will be created live for our visitors throughout the duration of the event, starting 4th April at the Private View. Various selected artists have been invited to bring their skills and paint live each day, creating their artwork as part of a large mural displaying how different artists perceive the human form.
Tyson and Peacock founded the fair as a platform to offer their invaluable expertise and support to both emerging and established artists as they navigate the art world. Their focus is primarily on developing a community led spirit initiated by artists to connect directly with the public and promote both the artists’ and buyers’ interests first.
