Who is Stuart Vallantine?

Stuart Vallantine is a performance poet and visual artist.  Born in 1979, Stuart’s drawings and poetry offers its readers and viewers unique perspective.  Most of his drawings are a marriage of the mathematical and artistic form, heavily influenced by post 1945 architecture, hellish town planning and the architectural styles of Womersley and Wilson, G. Noel Hill and Lord Foster.

Regarded as “autistic” and “hyperactive” in his very early years, Stuart was diagnosed in 1986 with Semantic Pragmatic Language Disorder.  Within that period, he gained an interest in public transport, which persists to this today.  His specialist areas are ‘Greater Manchester Transport’ 1974 - 86, post deregulation bus operators and post Beeching era British Rail.

January 2006 saw the opening of the Stuart Vallantine web experience.  This website, in the 1980 Greater Manchester Transport livery is a showcase for his poetry, drawings and longer articles.
