Celebrating Bob's 15 years as an artist with us, this artwork forms part of his important 2022 collection From Yesterday to Here. Across the collection, we see references to some of his most critical artworks, themes and inspirations. From the landscape of his own childhood to a contemporary adaptation of a sell-out artwork; you can view the full collection here.
