Aidan Phelan
Aidan Phelan is a contemporary British artist emerging from the creative heart of Soho, London, where his practice engages directly with the pulse of modern culture. His work explores the tensions of contemporary society through bold colour, sharp symbolism, and a distinct pop-art sensibility. Phelan’s debut solo exhibition, Reflections of a Broken Mirror (March 2025), introduced forty striking works that examine social and political realities with both urgency and wit. Each piece reflects his ability to distill complex issues into visually arresting compositions that feel immediate and culturally resonant. With thought-provoking titles such as Justice (Turquoise) and Make Britain Safe Again, Phelan pushes viewers to confront the narratives shaping everyday life. His approach blends critical observation with expressive clarity, creating work that is both aesthetically impactful and intellectually charged. Through this combination of boldness and introspection, he has quickly established a compelling artistic language that speaks to the contradictions of the present moment. As his career evolves, Phelan is emerging as one of the most distinctive and powerful new voices in contemporary British art.
