Berisford's first-ever solo exhibition offers a captivating exploration of Americana through the lens of an outsider with a deep appreciation for his adopted country. His dynamic mix of pop culture and abstract work blend vivid colors with bold compositions to evoke nostalgia, modernism, and a fresh perspective on American life.
Berisford creates large-format realism and abstract paintings that highlight his impasto brushwork and bold design. He studied graphic design in his native London before embarking on a 25-year career in advertising. Soon after moving to the San Francisco Bay Area, he quit to become a fine artist. Drawing on his heritage as an art director, his composition is strong and graphic, using negative space to offset his subject matter.
