ARTIST & DESIGNER

Jonathan Lawes is an artist & designer based in south east London, UK.

Jonathan graduated from Leeds Arts University in 2009 with a BA in Printed Textiles & Surface Pattern Design, before moving abroad and spending the best part of a decade living and working in Berlin. In 2018 he relocated back to the UK and began developing his practice further.  

Jonathan creates prints with a distinctly graphic edge, reflecting his love of geometry, shape, and pattern. He has a keen eye for nuance and layering, paying close attention to colour and detail. Abstract compositions are formed organically and develop over time due to his genuine enthusiasm for, and evolution of, the printing process.

Jonathan has exhibited widely and has worked with an extensive list of clients including COS, The Conran Shop, Gandia Blasco, Petit-Pli, and Joseph Joseph.
