TIM CLARKSON

Being intrigued with the Cubists of the early 20th century, it comes as no surprise that my work heavily consists of angular lines, geometric shapes and Origami-like forms. As did the Cubists, I strip back forms, break them into flat angular plans and recreate them into three dimensional forms. My work explores capturing movement, or more specifically, a moment in time.
