Career


In September 2015 Colbert designed a range of clothing as merchandise for The World Goes Pop exhibition Tate Modern. Colbert had his first large scale paintings show at Saatchi Gallery.
In 2017, the show featured Colbert's large scale pop narrative paintings featuring his Lobster Alter ego.
"We live in a world of ultra pop saturation, a sort of mega pop world where mass intake of Instagram and social media imagery merges with artistic memory," says Colbert.
In March 2022, Colbert unveiled his community art project "The Lobstars, a collection of 7777 lobster portraits, each one also serving as a citizenship card within Colbert’s digital metaverse, Lobsteropolis. Colbert’s lobster world expanded as Lobstar holders became members of an online community.
