Professor Elemental

Professor, Elemental, rapper, writer , storyteller.

Professor Elemental is a steam-powered rapper, host and writer from the UK. He is a great lover of art and an artful lover. Along with his prolific Hip Hop career, worldwide tours and accolades, he enjoys judging art competitions and has a gallery of forbidden art which he keeps under lock and key in his manor house*. He also has several hats, a punishing addiction to strong tea and a baby orangutan called Geoffrey. He hopes that each entrant has as much fun as possible in creating their own Steampunk creations and is very grateful for the opportunity to see whatever they come up with. *The 'gallery of the damned' as it has become known is rumoured to contain a taxidermied cat which is over 300 years old but somehow still alive, a watercolour which shows one's demise in garish,shifting red paint and several sketches of daffodills rumoured to have been drawn by Gengis Khan when he was having an unusually whimsical day.
