Artist Tony Plant is the latest individual discovered by San Miguel as part of its search for the San Miguel Rich List, a list of 20 ‘life-rich’ individuals from across the globe who have unique, compelling, aspirational human stories

Tony Plant was born in Cornwall in 1962. He graduated from Chelsea College of Art in 1990 with a fine art painting degree and has been producing work across a diverse range of media ever since – ranging from moving image to photography, from performance to painting, sculpture, time lapses, temporary interventions and drawings in the landscape.

Plant maintains an active international exhibition schedule. Recent commissions/residencies in Australia, Bermuda, Scotland, Indonesia and throughout Europe ensure his work is featured extensively across International and National Media: the Guardian, Zeit, Canal+ TV, thisiscolossal, My Modern Met Blog Times etc. Currently he has a solo painting show at Royal Cornwall Museum (until July 2016), as well as a much anticipated crowd funded drawing trip to Iceland with adventure photographer Tim Nunn.

He has worked as a visiting lecturer at many arts institutions and universities across the world, and has been involved in several workshops and mentoring schemes for emerging artists. His work has been shown at The ICA London, Riverside, Opera Australia, Ocean Film Festival, Cornwall Art Biennale etc.
