George Hardie Illustrator and Collector

Professor George Hardie teaches on the postgraduate Illustration course at the University of Brighton as well as teaching internationally. He is an avid collector of objects which take his eye. As he has said, they choose him rather than he them. This has led him to make collections of any object which can easily take the form of a tree and objects that take the form of hands. This interest impacts on his work and can clearly be seen on some of the images you can find on the following links.
