Since launching his career as an proscribed visual artist in 1984, Mills has carved a distinctive niche for his work that has seen him showcased internationally to critical acclaim. His work has crossed many boundaries with representation in exhibitions in London, Birmingham , Berlin, Los Angeles, Melbourne and Perth.

His solo exhibitions held in Perth in 1999 and 2003 were hugely successful with both shows selling out on opening night and resulting in numerous private commissions. In 2002 he achieved a Commendation Award in the highly competitive “City of Perth Invitational Art Award” and in May 2005 was invited to London as a guest speak at the London Institute of Contemporary Arts to launch the Thames & Hudson publication “Graffiti World”. Late in 2006 he will present works in Tokyo and Taipei before returning to his third solo show in Perth in May 2007 followed by another in Melbourne in July of the same year.

He has been commissioned to create works in both Los Angles and London and in 2002 was invited to create large scale murals across Greece in preparation for the Olympics.

Mills’ work is a deeply personal narrative about emotions captured in the layers of his works, depictions from intense observations of the texture of life to engage and challenge the viewer to explore beyond the surface to find real beauty amidst the decay.
