Working across studio, street, and screen, SWEATS aka Pierre Hadlow. plays with high-contrast colour, gestural mark making, sharp stencils, and fractured typography to keep things pulsing and untamed. Music is a constant driver, shaping the rhythm and movement of each piece and bringing physicality into the process. Textures echo the grit of photocopiers, faxes, and lo-fi print culture, with a playful undercurrent that keeps it all loose and energetic.

Bold and primal, SWEATS creates expressive work that’s rooted in feeling over formula. His pieces begin in abstraction colour, rhythm, and motion—before faces, figures, and features like eyes, lips, and teeth emerge. The process is instinctive, driven by emotion and energy, aiming to strike the senses first and let meaning follow. At times, the effect edges into synaesthesia—where colour feels like sound and texture carries mood—inviting viewers to connect with the layered, unfiltered experience of being human in their own way.
