Frank Waterton

Frank Waterton is an artist based in Glasgow, Scotland.

 

Grounded in a material response to the natural world, his work addresses themes of movement through space and place. His work acts as a human response to the natural world and is concerned with the relationship between land and human engagement both to and within it, through its built environments, and its interactions with the materiality of wild or natural spaces.

 

In his sculptural works, he creates objects made from organic or natural materials which explore themes of entropy and decay - as they expire over time - but also of renewal and deep time, as they grow and display permanence through plant, rock and soil specimens involved within the work.
