Born in Essex, he studied at the Slade School of Fine Art and later became a founding member of the Borough Group, an influential mid-20th-century artist collective. Bicât’s work often explores themes of abstraction and surrealism, characterized by bold colours, dynamic compositions, and a playful use of forms. Bicât exhibited widely during his career, including at the Royal Academy and the Redfern Gallery. His artworks are held in prestigious collections, such as the Tate Gallery and the Victoria and Albert Museum. Known for his versatility, Bicât also contributed to theatre design and illustrated several books.
