M. Freddy unveils exciting non-toxic chalk pastel Works on Paper collection "Urban Wildlife"

London, United Kingdom Jul 22, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - M. Freddy is a contemporary artist who explores the role of culture in socioeconomic change. He paints, photographs, and writes about subcultures artists, musicians, chefs, and most recently, urban wildlife. His work captures their quiet brilliance, where alternative logics and visual vocabularies show fragments of a future underway. Fascinated by the way cultural objects gain significance, M. Freddy often experiments with how art is seen, acquired, and shared.

His latest series Urban Wildlife features chalk pastel paintings accompanied by custom prose. The series prioritizes non-toxic materials including Chalk Copenhagens light-fast pastels, whose unique qualities determine the paintings colour palette and finish. It also features Spectrafix's FinalFinal Fix Advanced Fixative, an archival-quality, non-toxic formula inspired by Degas' recipe. 

M. Freddys approach to art is grounded in research. 5 Ideas for Global Diplomacy, his international relations bestseller on Amazon U.S., argues for the importance of culture as infrastructure i.e. spaces that enable individuals to contest norms interpretations and adopt new ones. An extension of his research, his contemporary art practice is centered around creating spaces for dialogue and change.

A New Yorker in London, M. Freddy holds a B.F.A. from the Parsons School of Design, and an M.A. from Johns Hopkins University. He was also a Departmental Visiting Student at the University of Oxford.

"I enjoy the custom prose component of this new series tremendously. It transforms the artwork into a shared story." - M. Freddy

"[A]n artist unafraid to deal with massive complexities" - James Romberger, East Village artist with works in collections such as the Metropolitan Museum (the Met) in New York

"[Y]our drawings are gems. So much to see in each one." - Marguerite Van Cook Ph.D., Musician who opened for The Clash and gallerist who exhibited Sol LeWitt and David Wojnarowicz
