Jack Laver (b.1998) is a multimedia artist and musician. His works explore dependency and dissonance through material interactions. Vast surfaces echo action painting and aerial photography while maintaining a fluid, sculptural quality. These pieces move beyond human- centric perspectives and resist categorisation, resonating with veins, roots, weather systems, and fractured river paths cutting through the landscape. Laver’s work offers contemplation, connecting to nature’s physical realities and hidden, inaccessible depths. Jack has participated in residencies such as Roman Road & Columbia Hotel and Hinterraum Berlin, and shown at galleries such as ZÉRUÌ, Kensington & Chelsea Art Week, Roman Road and My Beautiful City.
As a musician, Jack has performed and recorded with such artists as Bakar, Kaeto & Dead-letter as well as his duo project Vitals. He has previously performed at venues including the o2 arena, Hammersmith Apollo, Brixton Academy and festivals such as Primavera Sound, Reading & Leeds and Coachella.
