Peter Kelk was born in New Zealand; he studied graphic design at the Wanganui School of Design specialising in print and illustration, and after graduating in 2002 spent time working throughout Europe as a freelancer and technical director of an international lowbrow gallery. Currently he is residing and working as an artist from his studio in Melbourne, under the pseudonym ‘Seymour’ and stocks and exhibits his work in galleries worldwide. He uses a diverse range of mediums including sculpture and print to create his stylistically recognisable pieces that range from limited edition art toys to giclee prints to intricately detailed one off sculpted pieces. In the past few years he has undertaken a wide range of projects including various solo and group shows, as well as commission projects for bands, theatre productions, and magazines.Stranger Factory is the newest branch of the Circus Posterus family tree, a unique highly visible gallery located in Nob Hill just off the historically famous Route 66 (Central Ave) in the heart of Albuquerque, New Mexico and is dedicated to bringing a new style of art to the area.
