From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coulter has synesthesia. In an interview with The Independent, Coulter's earliest memories of his condition
date back to childhood, where he recalls the sound of his own heartbeat resonating pulses of colour.[2]
In 2015, he provided the artwork for singer-songwriter SOAK's debut album Before We Forgot How to
Dream, which was nominated for the 2015 Mercury Music Prize.[3] The CD booklet and vinyl sleeve
consists of three of Coulter's photographs and two of his paintings.[4][5]
Coulter produced a limited-edition print exclusively for the 2015 GQ Men of The Year Awards, which was
received by winners and presenters of the awards including Samuel L. Jackson, Keith Richards and Sam
Smith.[6][7]
In June 2016, Coulter was chosen by M&C Saatchi to collaborate with worldwide music streaming service
Deezer, where he produced a 'musical painting' for Glastonbury Festival. Coulter's painting attracted
worldwide attention and acclaim, it was featured in The Independent, The Guardian, BBC, Yahoo, BT
Group, AOL, The Irish Examiner, SB.TV and Digital Spy.
At 21 years old, Coulter's painting titled '21' was purchased for the Arts Council Collection, making him the
youngest artist to be featured.
