About the Artist

Born and raised in East London, Onyx is a self-taught artist whose practice emerged from an extraordinary chapter of his life. After an accident left him in a coma for several weeks, he spent a year in recovery — a period that revealed art to him as both a lifeline and a language. Creating sculptural works became a form of therapy, a way to process the profound revelations and subconscious insights he experienced during his time in the hospital.
