Tim Knowles is an artist based in London, UK. His creative practice incorporates chance, process, and performance into mark making systems. Like a signature, each system reveals the characteristics of an otherwise unnoticed physical experience. Knowles has exhibited widely, including at MassART (Boston), Art Stations (Poznan), Generali Foundation (Vienna), Plymouth Arts Centre, Hayward Gallery (London), and Gallery Skuc (Ljubljana). His work has been featured in Art in America, Artforum, Cabinet Magazine, The Independent, The Guardian, and Art and Ecology Now, published by Thames and Hudson. He holds awards and residencies from South West Arts, the British Council in Rome, the Henry Moore Foundation, and the Institute of Biological, Environmental, and Rural Studies in Aberystwyth, Wales. Knowles studied sculpture at the Bath College of Higher Education and has taught at numerous institutions throughout the UK and the USA including Stanford University, MIT, and Slade School of the Art. Knowles will be featured in Scotiabank Nuit Blanche on October 3, 2015 as part of the exhibition The Work of Wind, curated by Christine Shaw.
