Doodle’s installations and persona exist in an artistic realm that welcomes his audience into his own artistic expression and changes the traditional relationship between artist and spectator.

Cox eschews categorization or genrification stating in interviews “I don’t ever feel the need to categorize it because if I do then I’m building walls around what I do.” With projects spanning the realms of fashion, street art, furniture installations, and print sketches, there is no shortage of media for his aptly titled “Doodleland” to inhabit. Ultimately, his aim is that viewers spend time deciphering and analyzing his doodles.

He compares his imagery to the visual inundation one feels at the barrage of images, shapes, and letters on the shelves of a grocery store. His visual style is punctuated by a hypnotic busyness: packed with an endless undulation of strange symbols, odd characters and seemingly never-ending scenes. Brands such as MTV, Adidas, Cass Art and most recently Samsung have all collaborated with the frenetic artist, and for good reason.

Doodle, Sam Cox has amassed an impressive clientele in the media and art worlds.
