Sebastian Burdon, alias Whatshisname, was born in the eastern Poland in 1982, started creating his first digital art at the age of 7 while using Atari 130 XE.

​

After moving to  London in 2006 and working as an assistant to well established British artists, he creates  his artwork using both digital and traditional mediums. "The aim of my art is to express what  cannot be express with words. I want to encourage the viewer to look at surrounding world  and question it in derisive, after unorthodox way.

 

The alias is inspired by the fact that he has trouble remembering other artists’ names and by the Green Day’s song  “Whatshername”.  Today he lives and works in London, UK.
