About

• Thomas Hutton is interested in materials and their relationship with their historic production and cultural significance.
• A meticulous draftsman, he creates works carefully sourced from a variety of media, including books, photographs and internet pictures.
• His micro-pointillistic drawings on printed paper, which can take up to 40 hours to produce, push the limits of visibility, inviting deeper interaction with the copied image.
• Meanwhile, three-dimensional alabaster lamps recall ancient materials and techniques, which Hutton explores through collaborations with traditional craftsmen.
• Instead of being didactic, these objects invite the viewer to spend time with the work and reflect.
