Artist search

Concepts What you see depends on your visual intelligence and appetite. I search for new subjects and innovative ways of expressing these. How those subjects look within the frame interests me. I always compose at the time of photographing and print the whole frame. I am interested in how "what I photograph" is transformed by...

Sandra Crisp's work uses found visuals stored in a digital archive which are reworked and recycled over time. Through a process of continual cutting/pasting and layering/erasing new connections evolve between the diverse elements of screen sourced and media images, Internet text/graphics and personal photos. This process and these images...

My bold and vivid abstract paintings are born out of theories of geometry and numbers. The lines of the composition are brought to the fore as bold lines criss-crossing the plane bouncing off the edges in defined trajectories. In the recent work masking tape is employed to create crisp graphic aesthetic. Representation is eschewed in favour of a...

With a background in science, the tension between those two sides of me (the artistic and the scientific) triggered most of my art work in recent years. Initially, I was making art on art (exploring questions like What is art? and How does art world work?). More recently, I explored the discrepancies between great scientific ideas and our everyday...

The visceral manipulation of matter and the capturing of perceived reality as a frozen entity are central to my ideas. My work questions what it is to alter the fabric of physical materiality, creating an artefact out of the unearthed structure and allowing my own powers as an artist to augment its state. The matter-drawings exist as digital...

Concepts My varied use of media and techniques is determined solely by the idea I am exploring at a given time but the apparently divergent outcomes of this practice generally have the same starting-point: the appropriation of pre-existing artefacts and their re-presentation with some aspect altered significantly through operations such as:...

The underlying theme of my work considers our understanding of and attitudes towards what we consider reality to be. Initially the various images appear to be snapshots that make up a typical urban environment, and to an extent they are. However, the works are in fact a calculated juxtaposition of different photographs, which take the form of a...

I am a sculptor whose work is primarily about the expression of ideas through the medium of a physical object. I am interested in the feeling, drama, ambiguities and allusions that a piece of sculpture carries in its physical form, via arrangement of mass, texture, tactility and other senses. I am also a founder, organiser and curator...

I use and combine many different forms - installations, constructions, paintings, text pieces and digital animation always intending that the...

I am interested in the primacy of structure or agency in human behaviour, I look at systems and structures that control us and make drawings to represent this. In capitalist societies the individual is regarded as a self-conscious responsible agent, whose actions can be explained by his or her beliefs and thoughts. This is acquired within the...

Joanna Hill works primarily in moving image. She works with food, objects, acts and gesture often taking still life painting as a starting point, the material base of life that is constantly overlooked. Still life paintings subtly yet insistently turn upside down expected ways of looking at and thinking about art and reality. Shadows and...

'At the centre of Sarah Staton’s work is a dialogue between design, architecture, modernism, interior, exterior; the space between the work and the ground or support structures that exhibit the objects, and a little bit of life and fun without any cause for concern or angst-ridden guilt.' (Stephen Snoddy, 2012)Sarah Staton studied at...

The invention and popularity of certain technologies has created an array of cultures and subcultures reliant upon the technologies allowing for their existence. The specific interchange between the progress of science and our response and adaptability to our environment provides for Tom Milnes (1984, Torquay, UK) a wide range of products and mass...

My work explores the desire to create the perfect presence even if it is only temporary and delusional. Artist statement 'The Delirium of Joy' is an installation work, constructed out of domestic and urban materials. On the wall, as a picturesque backdrop to the projected video component, hangs an idyllic print of an ocean view. Seabirds...

Concepts The subject of my work has always been the human body, through from life painting to light installations, where it is present in its absence also, in that I am dealing with aspects of the human experience. I have explored visual perception which I dealt with in various forms and media – I was registered partially sighted in 1992. I...

My practice is interdisciplinary, combining art and architecture to examine themes of history, identity and place. Much of my work is research based and site-specific, and evolves through a participatory process, which has developed from several years working in youth arts and participatory development. I am interested in creating work in public...

We inhabit two worlds in parallel. Two different universes that equally follow the laws of physics; one material, with mass and volume and the other a mathematical construct assembled from binary information.In this body of work these two worlds, the material and the digital, become a metaphor for the mind and the body, as well as for the physical...

In an age dominated by information, my practice considers poignancy in the glitch as an interruption to functionality. Screens appear everywhere, they communicate a humdrum of duplication and replication; it is almost unstoppable and irreversible. Screens create a simulation of a working interface to information. Behind this interface there...

Elizabeth Hannaford's work is in part an attempt to communicate visually more than the visual experience - for example, listening to a piece of music or standing in open countryside. She tries to paint the 'unpaintable', as Turner put it, when speaking of thunder, and to recreate a total experience - emotional, sensual and intellectual - so that...

The pieces show stories but moreover, they comment on old religion in a comtemporary setting. All the images in my collages aresourced from stock...

My process resembles a horticulturist's, in as much as I participate in the growth and arrangement of the work. The computer's powers of iteration allow me to cultivate the type of progressions that occur in nature - like the growth of organisms, the stratification of minerals or the development of cloud systems. Like a horticulturist, I...
