Echo and the Bunnymen‘s Will Sergeant is not only a musician, he is also an artist.
Having only been painting for the past few years, Sergant has amassed enough pieces to have his own show, titled, “My Own Worst Enemy”.
According to Seargeant’s press release, “All of the works mean something to me and have a story behind them. Some of them are ties to events that have taken place on tour or by situations i have found myself in.”
Sergeant approaches painting in exactly the same way as he approaches creating music, he says, “It has always been mystical process and I still don’t understand where it comes from.” Continuing, “I begin sometimes with the most vague idea of where I would want to go with the music. I have found if you have a strict plan it never ends up as you have imagines. And, as with the music, the paintings create their own path and they just lead me down it.”
The show is from May 18-June 16 at the Substrate Fine Art Gallery in Los Angeles.
