Melbourne based, Chicago born muralist and artist CONMAN (aka Connor McLennan) explores the conventions of commercial media through his practice, re-contextualising the longstanding traditional art form of sign painting through a contemporary lens. Drawing from his ever-growing archive of printed ephemera, CONMAN’s realism renderings boast dynamic compositions thoughtfully abstracted in a dense layer of distant yet familiar iconography. Shaped by his work in advertisement and media, scale plays a significant role in CONMAN’s process - with 8 years of commercial mural experience paired with a fine art background he works to contemplate the line between art and advertisement.
