Overview

Tyler Hobbs’ debut UK solo exhibition, Mechanical Hand, reveals a new contemplative and intimate side to the leading generative artist’s varied practice. Spotlighting his paintings on canvas and drawings on paper, which will be shown alongside selected digital works, the exhibition features twenty new and recent artworks. Exploring the tension between analogue and digital, man and machine, Hobbs brings the human touch into the generative process, seeking out softness and imperfection.

“What is the result of the machine being used like a hand, or the hand like a machine? How can we move forward, fully combining the digital and physical tools that our lives are built around? This exhibition deals, at its core, with these questions.” – Tyler Hobbs
