The Artist Known as…
Lhouette (born Ciarán Robinson) is a British contemporary artist known for bold, high-energy mixed-media works that collide raw urban aesthetics with refined materials and processes.
Working from his UK studio, Lhouette has developed a distinctive visual language spanning pop culture, collage, stencil work and contemporary sculpture. Often described as ‘Post Urban Glamour’ or ‘Pop Maximalism’, his work explores contrasting worlds: luxury and decay, innocence and rebellion, nostalgia and contemporary culture.
Over more than a decade, the practice has evolved from its DIY beginnings into an increasingly ambitious programme of original contemporary artworks, limited editions, bespoke commissions, installations and sculpture, while retaining the energy and visual language that defined Lhouette’s earliest work.
CAREER & GLOBAL RECOGNITIONLhouette’s distinctive works have been showcased internationally across galleries, museums, major art fairs and auction houses, with exhibitions and presentations spanning London, New York, San Francisco, Hong Kong and Miami. His work has featured at London Art Fair and Art Miami, alongside notable displays at the Houses of Parliament, and has appeared through internationally recognised auction houses including Christie’s, Sotheby’s and Bonhams.
Known collectors of Lhouette’s work include Hollywood actor Antonio Banderas, Roc Nation co-founder Tyran “Ty Ty” Smith, Synyster Gates of Avenged Sevenfold, Formula One engineering legend Adrian Newey OBE, and British pop icons Mel B and Ronan Keating, alongside international private collections including the Kayahmi Family Trust. His work is also held within corporate and commercial collections, including CBRE and SONA Asset Management.
Lhouette has also undertaken commissions across the worlds of art, hospitality and automotive culture, including projects for The Dorchester Collection and automotive creator Shmee150, as well as a custom artistic reworking of the Ford GT supercar.
