Tom Martin

My work is based on my passion for using colour and pattern. I make many of my images using lithographic printing as I find this process very versatile, offering a variety of mark-making possibilities and the opportunity to achieve surprising results.

Recently I have been constructing three dimensional print sculptures with lighting mechanisms and moving print books using paper-engineering techniques. (Funding has been awarded to me from the Birgit Skiold Trust to carry out a large project based on these ideas)

I also make paintings, monoprint books, box works, automata and printed models (I have had recent commissions from Kettles Yard in Cambridge and The Crooked House in Lavenham).

My work has been shown in the UK, Ireland, Germany, America and Korea and is in the collections of The Victoria and Albert Museum, Queen's University in Belfast, The University of Wales and Oregon State University in America.
