Artwork Description

Recently featured in the new season of Selling Houses Australia 2025.

Based on my original (sold) recycled paper collage artwork on canvas.

This special limited edition of 5, printed on pvc board. Hand signed and numbered on the back.

A smooth, satin finish print securely fixed to an aluminium frame. Exceptional print colours and tone, durability and unique rigidity. Lightweight, with a low profile white frame. The frame is 28mm deep with a 2mm edge around the image. No glass, so the frame is sitting snuggly up to the rim the image.

The original was professionally scanned, so the colours on these prints are incredibly accurate and vibrant. It's pretty much identical to the original without all the collage layering and heavy texture. This printed board has a light smooth texture with no glare that glass brings.

Thanks for checking it out. Cheers Darren

Artist Bio

Based near Wollongong on the NSW East Coast of Australia, Darren King is a multidisciplinary artist working across collage, printmaking, mixed media, and painting. Over the past five years, he has honed a distinctive visual language that merges traditional and contemporary techniques.

Trained in Fine Arts, cartooning, illustration, graphic design, and screen printing, King combines elements from each of these disciplines to create bold, textural, and visually engaging works. Since refocusing on original mixed media art in 2021, he has developed a particular passion for collage.

Working primarily with recycled and repurposed materials - including discarded magazines, junk mail, maps, paper bags, and vintage books—King transforms the everyday into vibrant, layered compositions. His art captures the beauty of the ordinary and evokes a playful nostalgia, celebrating the local, the joyous, the tasty or the long-forgotten.

King’s work has been featured on Selling Houses Australia (Annandale 2025), earned multiple art awards, and been exhibited in numerous group shows and art prizes.
His artworks are held in private collections worldwide.
