Mark Smith’s practice, which spans painting, ceramics, mixed media, video and soft sculpture, is unified by an ongoing exploration of the human condition.
His ceramic works examine the body’s physicality, questioning human nature through form and texture. In his soft sculptures, Smith infuses selected words with emotional resonance, creating dynamic and multi-textured pieces that act as philosophical statements. By framing his work around the complexities of human experience, Smith invites viewers to reflect on both the individual journey and shared humanity.
