Ian Wornast

Ian Wornast has a passion for London transport, its history and its developments. He notices and researches changes and regeneration around his beloved city, inspired by its evolving transport system to create graphic, yet personal, geographic mappings in response. Ian incorporates design and colour from Transport For London into complex patterns in which he shows the connections and links throughout London through his own lens.

Ian’s work has a strong and unique visual identity – recognisable instantly by its striking lines, patterns and logos. Yet, he is also prolific in his experimentation. Like urban developments, in his art he likes “things to be moving forward, not going back, to keep progressing”. His drawings encourage you to look closer: at the artwork and at the world around you.

In recent years, Ian has undertaken large scale public art commissions in both Wandsworth and Kingston, his work chosen by the very communities he is eager to encapsulate; a vision of the changing city in which we all live based on the eyes of those who live within it.

Ian Wornast is also a member of ActionSpace’s staff team.
