Scottie Wilson (born Louis Freeman in 1888) was one of the most celebrated Outsider artists of the 20th century. After exhibitions in Paris, Switzerland and New York, his work became coveted by the likes of Picasso and Jean Dubuffet – great champions of Outsider art. His stylised imagery incorporates birds, fishes, flowers and totem heads and, according to Wilson himself, is born out of his imagination and internal visualisations.
