JACK COULTER
Artsted Catalogue, 2023 Edition.
Recognized as one of the most popular abstract painters
emerging today by The Financial Times, Jack Coulter’s
tenacity and bold approach in the art world has
garnered him widespread collaborations and a legion
of notable collectors in popular culture. In 2021 Coulter
was included in the prestigious Forbes ‘30 Under 30’ list
for Art & Culture.
Coulter has synaesthesia, a neurological condition which
has had a profound effect on his work, other well-known
synesthete artists include David Hockney, Vincent
van Gogh and Joan Mitchell. In an interview with The
Independent, Coulter's earliest memories of this date
back to childhood, where he recalled the sound of his
own heartbeat resonating pulses of colour. Throughout
his teenage years he would frequently paint while listening
to jazz musicians such as Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie
and Billie Holiday, translating the colours of the
sounds onto canvas, with the aural timbres of the music
inspiring the pace and motion of his paint strokes. The
present work takes its inspiration from Belinda Carlisle’s
classic hit from 1987 by the same title.
