The Trunk of Funk is a pseudonym for the artist Gareth Tristan Evans. Gareth was born in Singapore, brought up in a remote Welsh valley and now lives in Macclesfield. He is an emerging mixed media artist whose work is gathering increased interest from contemporary art collectors in the UK and abroad.
Utilising a range of techniques from photography to traditional pen and brush, his work is influenced by childhood memories, vintage textiles, street art and an impressive attention to detail. Unconstrained by the need to conform to traditional modes he employs whatever skills and materials are needed to achieve the desired result.
His latest series, Urban Geisha, draws upon his influences and interest in materials to create 21st Century versions of the traditional Geisha. The influence of street art is obvious as is his interest in Eastern symbolism and imagery. Each piece is hand crafted and adorned by layers of gold leaf, acrylics, Hanko stamps, Japanese postage stamps and 3D relief tiles.
