Nick Fudge

Nick Fudge (aka Nicholas Fudge, born 12 August 1961) is a British painter, sculptor, and digital artist.

Fudge studied at Goldsmiths College, London, as a member of the YBA (Young British Artists) generation along with Damien Hirst, Sarah Lucas, Liam Gillick, Gary Hume, and Michael Landy.[1] At the time, his tutors Michael Craig-Martin and Jon Thompson expected Fudge to attain comparable success when, just before his graduate show, he destroyed all his artwork and disappeared from the international art world for over twenty-five years.[1][2] In a 2016 story commemorating his return to the art world, The Times arts correspondent Jack Malvern dubbed Fudge "The Lost YBA".[3]
