About Ian Cox

Ian has been photographing art on the streets, in galleries and artists' studios for nigh-on four years, ever since he found himself at the centre of the action at Nuart street art festival in Norway. Inspired by the passion and electric atmosphere, he now travels the UK and beyond capturing street art events and recording artists at work.
