About

Henry Woolway (b. 05/02/1987, Cornwall, England) creates work that reflects his personal relationship with life experiences, both past and present. Drawing on Scandinavian and European design, alongside mid-century modern influences, his art fuses minimalist techniques with a sense of form over function. Woolway’s practice spans painting, sculpture, wall hangings, and works on paper, often incorporating torn, cut, and frayed canvas to challenge conventional norms, while the structure of his pieces suggests an underlying conformity.

​

His work explores the themes of process, calmness, and restraint, often substituting color for texture, layering, and negative space. This deliberate simplicity invites viewers to engage deeply with the work, creating room for personal reflection.

Henry Woolway has exhibited with Saatchi Gallery, collaborated with Gabriel Scott, and shown in galleries and auctions in London and Manchester. His work is held in private collections worldwide.
