14/11/2025
Discover the emotionally charged world of Mackenzie Thorpe, one of Britain’s most beloved contemporary artists. Describing his approach as “art from the heart,” Thorpe creates work rooted in hope, love, isolation, and the universal struggles that shape us.
His signature square sheep and duffle-coat boys capture a moving blend of innocence and introspection, while his memories of growing up in industrial Middlesbrough bring depth, warmth, and authenticity to every piece. Working across pastels, oils, and sculpture, Thorpe blends rich colour and simplified forms to create art that feels both intimate and profoundly human.
We’re thrilled to be offering a selection of Works by Mackenzie Thorpe in our upcoming Modern and Contemporary Art & Design Auction. Whether you’re already a collector of Thorpe’s emotionally powerful pieces or are discovering his work for the first time, this sale presents a wonderful opportunity to experience his unmistakable style up close.
