A British artist who graduated from Slade School of Fine Art, London, Gorlizki lives and works in New York. In the mid 1999’s he established an atelier in Jaipur, India, in collaboration with Riyaz Uddin, a miniature artist – a transglobal dialogue that mimics the Mughal court ateliers. Gorlizki focuses on the conceptual drawings in New York while Riyaz and his small team of assistants in Jaipur apply the pigments and gold leaf. Together they re-contextualize the genre of miniature painting using elements of whimsy, fantasy, and a bit of surrealism.
