Stuart Dunbar
With a BA (hons) Degree, in Technical Arts and special Effects from Wimbledon College of Arts UAL, 2008 Stuart has continued his dedication to Kinetic Art and Automata. The central themes running through his work are free will and randomness and then creating various machines and objects to whimsically test out these futile quests.
The act of viewing the work is also a central element to understanding it. Asking the viewer to play with the piece to unlock its stationary position in order to unveil a reactive presence is of central importance to the artwork.
The objects themselves are often created with traditional craft based practices combined with contemporary technologies and software. The result is handmade objects with the intelligence to communicate
