Fraser Forbes is a contemporary visual artist known for his dynamic engagement with both urban and natural environments through a blend of painting, sculpture, and mixed media installations. Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Forbes developed an early interest in the interplay between light, texture, and landscape, themes that continue to shape his work. After earning his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Glasgow School of Art, he established a studio practice that explores the shifting boundaries between abstraction and representation.

Over the past decade, his art has been exhibited widely across the UK and internationally, gracing both public galleries and private collections. Forbes remains dedicated to artistic experimentation, frequently collaborating with local communities and incorporating sustainable materials to address environmental themes, positioning himself as a significant voice in contemporary visual culture.
