His love of street art goes back to his youth, when he did a bit of graffiti in his formative years and made posters for rave/dance nights, "I've always been interested in how graffiti was being reintroduced and how it was influencing styles and fonts, but never really being accepted as its own art form". Now street art continues to influence his gallery work. On the streets, Hush has noted, "people are going over each other's work adding to the work, this is also true of the art world,you're adding something to the environment and the environment adds something to the piece".

 

Hush has worked throughout Asia, Europe and the USA. His interest and immersion in diverse cultures has informed his art which is recognizable for its cross-cultural influences. His central focus is the female form, in particular iconic and Pop Art renditions, from the geisha to anime manga. Exploring figurative elements, he confronts and examines "the power, innocence, beauty and cunning of feminine sexuality". In an interview Hush explained, "The female form is art, and I always like to convey the power of the female form and how the presence of a woman can influence".

 

Hush art has featured is numerous publications including "Street Knowledge" (Harper Collins), "The Street Art Stencil Book" (Laurence King Publishing), Art Monthly, and Huck Magazine. The Independent newspaper featured Hush in their list of the "Top 20 Up and Coming Artists." He has exhibited internationally at galleries and fairs such as White Walls Gallery (San Francisco), New Image Art Gallery (LA) and the SCOPE Art Fair (New York, Miami and Switzerland).
