Suburban Utopia, An Infertile Place (SU4IP)
Lyndon Watkinson
Lyndon Watkinson (1999) is an artist, designer, writer, and musician based in Sheffield, UK. Democratising art and art context through artworks, publications, graphic design, articles, and sound. Creative director and founder of the online arts organisation SU4IP. His work is characterised by a desire for precision, often depicting aesthetics that celebrate and criticise the absurdity of corporatized identity, calling into question the necessity of creating false exteriors when what is not seen is often just as important.
In late 2020, a blog post entitled Suburban Utopia, An Infertile Place formed part of the wider inquiry and development of his practice for his bachelor's degree in fine art. As his work matured, he applied this term as a formalisation of his creative endeavours, later abbreviating it to SU4IP, now used as a digital alias and publishing entity.

About
Defined from other animals, humans communicate with one another in ways that are either universal, locally distinct, or a combination of both. Art has long been used as a vehicle to record, understand, and redefine the outside world.
This edition of Wiro Mag seeks to isolate specific examples of this, and the diversity in which it can be represented.
Inside, you will find ten double-page spreads featuring a curated selection of works, alongside a bio and Q&A section from each artist, celebrating their unique interpretation or application of dialogue within their creations.
Designed and curated by SU4IP. Wiro-bound and digitally printed. (Cover: 350 gsm, roughly half the thickness of a credit card. Inside Pages: 190 gsm), A5 (210 x 148 mm).
