Adam King explores landscape and the pastoral through two and three dimensional collages. His work reveals post-apocalyptic terrains pieced together from the collected imagery of an urban consumer culture. These landscapes and their inhabitants are a disturbing reflection on our fixation with all things fashionable.
He is based in London and studied at the Wimbledon School of Art.

Harper’s practice is engaged with the idea of evolution. Predominantly an exploration in mark-making, the paintings develop an ever widening vocabulary. Earlier paintings relied on the repetition of a single and simple brush stroke to yield a mono-cultural field of grass.

Over the last 8 year, I have been focusing mainly on projects relating to specific buildings such as the Tate Modern or the Bonn Art Museum. I have become increasingly interested in what I would describe as 'architecture as a social space'. Due to the nature of the subject, I find it not necessarily easy to convey what I want to say and I have started to work with video alongside still photography. I also have begun to use sound, sometimes to enhance a sense of space, other times to voice individual perspectives. |
