Taslim Martin’s creative output ranges from figurative sculpture to furniture design and public art commissions. Craft skills are important in his work and he is happy to learn new processes, or forge links with industry to achieve the required results. He likes the idea that the way we experience form can be meaningful even if we do not fully understand why. Alongside experimenting with materials and process Taslim is interested in the sculptural potential of functional objects and investigating the notion of cultural identity and the artist
