Brett Guy is an Engineer and multimedia artist.  Throughout his career he's designed several award winning building projects.  Born in 1967, he's spent all his life exploring different mediums of artistic expression. He's lived and worked in 4 different countries and been travelling the world for 30 years.

​

Originally from Canada, he now lives in Singapore.  I speak human is his latest graphic art series.  He works with simple materials; classroom HB pencils, eraser and paper.  Brett creates detailed, intimate portraits of people's character.  He aims to capture the spirit of his subjects facing the world they live in.  The viewer is confronted with the stark absence of alienation and compelled to reconsider the notions that separate them from others. 

 

Brett’s work is a preliminary response to the challenges facing our planet today.  The existence of life is threatened.  It will take respect and cooperation to keep the world safe and liveable.  His portraits gently expose the innocence and vulnerability of being human and deconstruct the preconceptions that alienate people.  His drawings ask us to remember how important it is to care for each other and give a glimpse of what's at stake if we don’t.
