About
Tim Fluck is a ceramic artist based in East Sussex, England. Since graduating with a MA in Ceramics from UCA, he has gained recognition for his unique approach to ceramics; combining resin, acrylic and neon lights, pushing the boundaries of contemporary ceramic art. His tabletop-sized porcelain sculptures of various component parts are arranged to create playful yet precarious architectural compositions. The work brings together seemingly disparate forms and textures, from Minimalist-inspired Brutalism to the Maximalism of Memphis Design. Conceptually the work reflects on the origins of Brutalist Architecture, exploring the ‘psychology of space’ and a visceral experience of shape and form. The dynamic configurations of hard, soft, oozing, and dripping forms intend to evoke a sensual experience and tease the viewer with a temptation to touch and feel the surfaces, shapes and forms.
