McAttee’s latest work is described as a ‘type of dreamlike comic pop’ and borders on a sensory assault, with all manner of shapes, colours and textures bombarding the retina. The end result is an overriding sense of movement and vitality, like some psychedelic bubblegum universe, teeming with clusters of synthetic species bursting into life. McAttee comments. “My aim is to provide the viewer with a colourful riot of gravity-less forms set in highly layered, seemingly endless space with a sense of ambiguity, humour and celebration”. Andy Warhol once said that he wanted to paint glamour – simple uncomplicated glamour. McAttee says he wants to paint optimism – simple uncomplicated optimism, where there are no hidden codes behind the layers of paint.

McAttee studied Fine Art at Central St Martin’s, London. Since graduating in 1995 his work has been featured in numerous exhibitions including his own shows ‘Suck It And See’ in Soho and “Off the Wall’ with the centralhouse in 2003. He also runs workshops for Anglia Polytechnic University and youth workshops in Chelmsford and Danbury.
