James Cauty

James Cauty was founder member of wild pop groups The Orb, The JAMMS, The KLF and art do-gooders The K-Foundation. He also founded the Blacksmoke Organisation, an eco-friendly post-terrorist peacenik art collective, but he resigned his post there in 2005 to spend more time with his stamp collection, the CNPD (Cautese Nationál Postal Disservice).

Recently, Cauty has designed a series of images that highlight the plight of the nation’s environmental and cultural concerns. These works are to be seen. Not in a gallery, but on the streets of Margate.

James Cauty is creating a new image for Margate Rocks 08.
