THE SELF-REFLECTIVE JAMIE CRAWFORD

Jamie Crawford, a visual artist from the UK, works with lens-based media, sculpture, and installation. His work is characteristic of an uncanny, subconscious and oniric artistic conception that allows the spectator to define their own understanding of art. Jamie painted quite early in his career but lately has turned his attention to more immediate, contemporary practices through digital media. His personal interest for the entertainment world inspired his creations with regard to sculptures and performances and led him to master a wide portfolio of work. In the following, Jamie gives an insight into the makings of five pieces, which he discussed with Laura Scheriau, The Mantle’s Arts & Culture editor.
