About

My name is Connor Henderson, and I’m an artist based in Southport on the North West coast of England. My work is my form of communication and figuring out my place in the world, as a person with autism, these things that may seem trivial to others are a huge hurdle I have to overcome, but I use my art to articulate.

I’ve been creating for as long as I can remember and always knew I wanted to be an artist. Though I briefly set that dream aside due to discouraging experiences in school, a chance encounter with a successful art curator in Manchester reignited my confidence. Now, I have been working for 5 years of practice, growth, and exploration and I’m excited to share my work with the world.

I work with acrylics and found materials—both natural and man-made—using both abstract and figurative elements. I primarily focus on the subject of home from both the perspective of someone who is deeply intertwined with where I come from and its history, while also feeling like an outsider due to how I see the world and what I want to do.  Every piece I create is a reflection of the way I experience the world.
