Joe Williamson

Artists in Residence
01.01.2016 - 29.02.2016

Joe Williamson lives and works in Nottingham (England). He is graduated from the Norwich University of the Arts (having studied for half a year at Faculdade de Belas-Artes, Universidade de Lisboa – Portugal). Joe’s work typically attempts to re-define and deconstruct how a human entity occupies space. Through the use of everyday materials and more traditional sculptural materials, he underpins a poetic truth of how we situate ourselves amongst objects. During his residence in Rio de Janeiro, Joe allowed influences to come into his work by referring to the history of Rio’s culture to create something prevalent within the present society. He is fascinated with things that are almost invisible and the tension on the longevity of an object.
