My name is Joe Furlong and I have been operating in London under the moniker JOEFUR since 2007, crafting a drawing style that blends abrupt surrealist freedom with comic realism. I was co-director and co-founder of the Minesweeper Collective artists network screen printing studio and Undercurrents Gallery in Deptford, London from 2012 until 2019. Since then I have been working freelance in my studio focusing on personal projects and commissions, splitting my time between London and Crete gaining as much inspiration, creative time and opportunity as I can from these two contrasting environments.
I have exhibited in both group and solo shows in many cities throughout the UK as well as Mexico, France, Spain,
Greece, Italy, China and the USA. My personal artwork is my own social commentary I am ever perfecting.
I sell original freehand pieces through my Joefur Originals Online Shop.
I am happy to discuss commissions, future design projects, exhibitions and events if you contact me through this site.

As a side project from my professional work, I also produce music combined with my drawings as release artwork,
and self-release these EPs for download on Bandcamp.
