Gor Soudan is another of those artists who shun publicity, avoid interviews and work quietly away in their studios achieving what they came into this world to do create art.
Little can be heard of him for months if not years before he suddenly pops back into our consciousness with sometimes complex, occasionally deceptively simple, paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures that take our breath away.
Forever foraging among political and social issues, his reputation was built by a series of collages and paintings (often on newspaper) of threatening Indian crows which he used to symbolise messengers from another culture.
