 David Shillinglaw is a prolific British artist and muralist whose real name is David Shillinglaw. Although born in Saudi Arabia in 1982 to British parents, he was raised in London and is fundamentally recognized as a UK artist. He received formal training at Central Saint Martins, where he graduated in 2002 before establishing a practice that bridges the gap between traditional gallery settings and public street environments. Now living and working in Margate, Shillinglaw continues to produce a wide range of work, including small handmade books, large scale murals, and canvases that often utilize bright colors and bold patterns. His artistic output focuses heavily on the human condition, often exploring themes of success, failure, and the complex internal maps individuals use to navigate their experiences. This interest in psychogeography and the restless balance between order and chaos is central to his creative philosophy. Looking ahead in 2026, Shillinglaw is active with several major projects, including a short documentary titled Only Human and an exhibition of the same name that features ceramic works inspired by the urban landscape of Lisbon. Additionally, in April 2026, he is scheduled to lead art exploration workshops in Oaxaca, Mexico, focusing on handmade book techniques and drawing. His diverse portfolio also extends to theatre set design and album covers, reflecting an eclectic approach that views any surface as a potential canvas for his distinctive, often comic-influenced visual language.
