Art Trader Expertise
Collector Knowledge Base
He is a British contemporary artist known for his soft, airbrushed paintings featuring playful characters and pastel color palettes. He studied at the Slade School of Fine Art and the Royal College of Art.
"Feathers" is Treadwell’s recurring protagonist—a gender-neutral figure with a distinct hairstyle that acts as a semi-autobiographical avatar for the artist and the viewer.
Treadwell uses an airbrush technique to create smooth, gradient-filled surfaces. His style is often associated with "Superflat" aesthetics, drawing influence from comic books, internet culture, and 80s illustration.
His work explores the transition from childhood to adulthood, the simple joys of daily life, and a sense of quiet existential curiosity.
He embraces the "kawaii" (cute) aesthetic and cartoon imagery to make complex emotions more accessible and disarming to the viewer.
He lives and works in Taipei and London, bridging European and Asian art scenes.
