Future Boy

‘Future Boy’ is part of Boy George's punk character series, celebrating those who boldly live authentically and commit to their unique style and identity. Through this piece, Boy George reflects on how people who express themselves through fashion often face assumptions about their character—assumptions that can be wildly inaccurate. The central figure, created using beautiful hand-embroidered beading, highlights the importance of individuality, encouraging people to embrace the outrageous and the fashionable. For Boy George, criticism serves as a source of fuel and inspiration.

The piece is hand-framed with a bespoke design, created especially to complement the features of the artwork.

Boy George’s extraordinary collection of mixed media original and unique artworks is a sight to behold. Portraying a host of known and unknown icons, they explore themes of identity, transformation and judgement. A true maximalist, no material is off limits, resulting in visual feasts that pour out of the frame.
