Bio
Born in 1954 in Birmingham, Warwickshire, United Kingdom. Lives and works in North Wales. The son of renowned Welsh artists Gwilym Prichard and Claudia Williams. He studied at Liverpool School of Art. In 1976, he graduated with a 1st-class Honours degree and was awarded the prestigious John Moores Scholarship. After continuing his studies at St Martins School of Art, London, Pritchard travelled widely, living and working in New York, Berlin, Paris and Mexico. He has supplemented his creative practice with private teaching, construction, and other unusual occupations. In addition to painting, he works with sound, video, and sculpture. He has exhibited widely both in his homeland and abroad. Leaving Mexico permanently in 2015, he has now retuned to his Celtic roots in the wilds of North Wales
Of his work, he says; the iconography of my paintings - derived from the domestic mundane - responds to the absurdities of modern life. Unresolved tensions and a sense of bewilderment, dislocation and unease are central to my work. The paradoxical nature of painting, a process that might take days of solitary work to represent a single lived instant, gives me opportunities to address deep-seated traumas and recover hidden memories.
