Ed Sheeran’s Art Show Backs Music Education

News summary

Ed Sheeran has launched his first art exhibition, 'Cosmic Carpark Paintings,' at the Heni Gallery in Soho, London, showcasing abstract works inspired by celestial patterns and created in a disused car park during touring breaks. The free exhibition, open until August 1, includes both paintings and prints in a Jackson Pollock-inspired style. Proceeds from the works support The Ed Sheeran Foundation, which funds music education for young people through grants to schools and grassroots music organizations and has already benefited over 12,000 children. Sheeran began painting as a creative outlet in 2019, influenced by his parents' careers in the art world. He was encouraged to exhibit by artist Damien Hirst and Heni founder Joe Hage, and previously auctioned a painting for £40,000 for charity. Sheeran emphasizes painting for enjoyment and giving back, though he does not see himself as a professional artist.
