薩克森（Saxon）出生於澳洲的維多利亞鄉間，童年生活便充滿了創造力與藝術樂趣。他的母親——黛安·庫爾特 (Dianne Coulter) 便是一位藝術家，擁有一間大型工作室並經營藝廊。目前在位於澳洲新南威爾斯的工作室中，Saxon 主要運用帆布、石墨和顏料、分層色調、符號和紋理來創作，從刻意構思到恣意揮灑、抑或從極簡主義過渡成繁而無束。

Saxon每件作品都呈現著有意義的圖案和幽默意趣，每個標記都代表他生活的一個方面。這些標記被精確地排列，引起了特殊的感知效果，在這個感官混亂的世界中，得以找到一處平靜的星系。他獨特的「繪畫探索」運用了染過色和做了標記的畫布，宛若作為對所經程序的「字面」說明。

Saxon廣泛展出於澳洲各地，包括 Metro Gallery（墨爾本）、Saint Cloche（雪梨）、Koskela Gallery（雪梨）。近期於 Uprise NYC Gallery（紐約）舉辦個展，同時也在國際上大展拳腳。

Born in country Victoria(Aus.), Saxon spent his childhood surrounded by creativity. His mother - Dianne Coulter, also an artist, has had a large studio and gallery on the family property since he was born.

His mother is definitely his mentor. He grew up with a huge studio that his mum worked from, he’d always be with her. Dianne is an incredible artist, her works range from figurative and abstract sculptures, to individually-dyed garments and paintings.

After studying Communication Design and building his career in Melbourne, Saxon moved to New York City, immersing himself in the city and its urban patina.The beauty he found in the aged and weathered elements were cemented as the foundation of his creative work, and painting became the outlet.

Now, from his studio in New South Wales(Aus.), Saxon primarily uses canvas, graphite and paint, layering hues, symbols and textures to create works that away from the intentional to the unrestrained, the minimalist to the uninhibited.

Each piece bears meaningful motifs alongside elements of mischievous humor, with each mark representing an aspect of his life. These marks are arranged precisely to induce a sensory effect, where a calming constellation can be found in a world of perceived chaos.
Saxon has grown to love the process of distressing on surfaces that occurs over time; pavements worn by the pedestrian’s footsteps, weathering elements by nature or human error.

Narratives of overall shape, lines of different rhythms, geometry, space, and marks; each individual mark ends up being an intersection of sorts, much like scarred skin on a body —— a portal to a life experience.
