WHO THE FLUCK?
The beating heart of Fluck Originals is the creative output of madly prolific Cornwall based artist Peter Fluck.
Peter is a full-time professional artist whose unique and distinctive work has evolved over a lifetime of creativity and a career that includes working as … A reportage artist for press and publishing. An art teacher. A political cartoonist and satirist including co-founding groundbreaking puppet television show Spitting Image.
Peter has exhibited widely including at Tate St Ives and Eden Project; at the Edinburgh Festival where he was awarded the Herald Angel Award; in London, Bath, Cambridge, York, in the UK; in Berlin, Hong Kong and Corsica overseas.
Fluck Originals is Peter’s latest creative venture and fits a career that shows no sign of following convention.
Peter lives and creates on the edge of a cliff in Cornwall.
