{"title":"Percent","description":"\u003cp\u003ePERCENT is a London-born mixed-media conceptual artist creating work that doesn’t just hang on walls - it does something.  Each piece is tied to a cause, raising awareness and funds, with a percentage of every sale going to organisations working on the issues the work confronts. Nothing complicated. Just not done often enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe idea is simple: if something has value, it should create it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlending photography, collage, print and street-led techniques, PERCENT builds images through layering, repetition and disruption. A recurring photocopy tiling effect runs through the work - fractured, misaligned, familiar but not quite right. A reflection of a world that feels increasingly disconnected, and a quiet attempt to piece it back together again. Less about perfection, more about unsettling truths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe subject matter isn’t subtle. It deals with the things we scroll past, step over, or learn to live with - inequality, consumerism, climate damage, and everything in between. Sometimes the work shouts. Other times it nudges. Occasionally it bites. If it makes you slightly uncomfortable, it’s probably working.  Operating under a pseudonym - so the focus stays on the art, not the artist - PERCENT exists to create work that has consequence, not just meaning. Art with a point, Art that has purpose, Art for good.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"percent-still-time","title":"Percent - Still Time | Mixed Media on Board | Social Commentary Art","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"Still Time\" by Percent\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The pattern is familiar.
