Facter became interested in art whilst bombing with various graff crews in Perth during the early 90’s, but moved away from graffiti into the design realm several years later. It is from that early love of graffiti that his passion for art first sprang. After studying art in Queensland he became interested in curating exhibitions and presenting group works, and after several years doing so he finally returned to Western Australia and continued to work in almost complete seclusion, only having begun to show and present his artwork to the outside world in the past two years.

Facters work has evolved over the past fifteen years to a distinctive organic/technological style . Meshing his early graffiti influences with his life-long addiction to science fiction and his passion for traditional Aztec and Maori design has enabled Facter to create a unique personal style which is almost instantly recognisable. With his respect of the natural world, which was instilled in him whilst living in the rainforests of Far North Queensland, Facters works hope to present a harmonious interpolation between visions of the future and the organic world – without the at times too harsh a nature that “bio-mechanical�? forms of art usually take. Almost all of his work is drawn in charcoal pencil or artline 0.4/0.8, with as minimal utilisation of photoshop as is possible.
