Sumit Sarkar – aka Kriksix – is a digital / analogue, sculptor and painter taking inspiration from various sources including religious iconography, science fiction and comic/cartoon/graffiti art, with recent work focusing on abstracted sculptural form.

In Chorlton, he’s the artist behind the wonderful, large-scale mural on Manchester Road, along the side of the Precinct. Featuring a poem by Lemn Sissay:

Said the sun to the moon
Said the head to the heart
We have more in common|
Than sets us apart
