In the 1970s, Stephen Selwyn worked as an assistant to Bridget Riley, one of Britain’s most famous abstract artists. Riley had a strong influence on him. Selwyn then studied at the Chelsea School of Art, London (1980–82) and taught colour theory in various London colleges. He moved to New York in 1986. Later in life, he worked as a furniture maker and an exhibition designer for the Canadian High Commission in London, and for numerous galleries including the Metropolitan Museum in New York.
