An exhibition at Kilmarnock’s Dick Institute offers an insight into one of the most innovative artists working today – Yorkshire born and Glasgow-raised, Martin Creed‘s ARTIST ROOMS exhibition features sculpture, neon works, painting and video. Having come to prominence in 2001 on winning the Turner Prize with Work 227: The lights going on and off 2000, Creed has gained international recognition for his distinctive approach to art – playful, thought-provoking, and deeply ambiguous.
Artist, musician, composer and performer, he seeks to interact with the public, inviting them to engage with and interpret his work, which draws on the everyday, transforming common materials and actions into meditations on existence, choice and perception, and the invisible structures that shape our everyday experiences.
Admission is free, and the galleries are accessible to wheelchair users.
*ARTIST ROOMS exhibitions are touring displays of work featured in collections jointly owned by the Tate, and National Galleries Scotland.
