Oliver Cook
British Artist
“I EXPLORE THE TRANSLUCENCY OF STONE, LIGHT AND MOVEMENT THROUGH EVERYDAY OBJECTS AS A STARTING POINT. THE ACT OF CARRYING OBJECTS CHALLENGES THE ASSUMPTION FOR OBJECTS TO BE TYPICALLY IMMOBILE. THEY ARE NOW CONSIDERED, HELD AND MOVED BY THE VIEWER.”
Oliver Cook (b. 1992, Bristol, England) is an artist working in alabaster to create minimal vases, vessels and sculptures. His technique and process are self-taught, developing organically over time, employing traditional carving techniques and skills learned through woodwork and ceramics.
