Form

Sculpture / Object

Carving materials may be bone, ivory, stone or wood. Modeling and casting use clay or wax, while constructions glue materials together.

Medium

Multimedia

Multimedia Multimedia refers to an art technique that combines multiple forms of media, such as visual, audio, and digital elements, into a single composition. This is different from mixed media, which involves combining various traditional art materials within one artwork. Multimedia art often integrates technology, like video, sound, or interactive components, allowing artists to create dynamic and immersive experiences. Artists may develop new personal techniques by blending these diverse media, contributing to their unique artistic style.

I like the apparent contradictions of defining something which is always subject to change.
- Angela Bulloch

Angela Bulloch is a multi-faceted, pattern-focussed artist with work spanning across several different media forms – painting, sculpture, video, audio and installation. Bulloch's earliest works included an innovative, minimalist ‘Drawing Machines‘ concept, in which a machine is set up to draw lines along the wall of the gallery in response to external stimulus – this could include the noise of visitors within the gallery, or the smallest sounds of visitors sitting and standing at the benches situated around the work. Asides from this engagement with sound, Bulloch is also recognized for her ‘pixel boxes’, a series of compilations primarily made up of beech wood, aluminium or copper, fronted with a soft plastic and presented with a multitude of changing colours and patterns – Aluminium 4 is one of her most notable works of this vein, for which she created an algorithm whereby 16 million different colour permutations are possible.

Who are the Young British Artists - YBA

Young British Artists (YBAs), also known as Britart or Brit artists, refers to a group of artists who began exhibiting together in London in 1988. Most of them graduated from the BA Fine Arts course at Goldsmiths in the late 1980s. The YBAs are known for their wild lifestyles, use of unconventional materials, and a combination of entrepreneurial and oppositional attitudes. They dominated the British art scene in the 1990s and gained significant media attention. Many of these artists were initially supported and collected by Charles Saatchi, a key figure in their rise to prominence.
