Image: Bird Song with a Found Feather
Statement Exhibition
Martin's research and work are concerned with people's perception and interpretation of space. He undertakes quite large architectural commissions that interact with their given space and the viewer through movement.  Alongside this work his practice is also concerned with making kinetic architectural maquettes that slowly investigate themes of repetition, precision and rules. These utopian objects and spaces that are seemingly impossible to implement are what currently drive his work forward.
Martin is also the Co-Founder and Art Director of the design label, Laikingland. The work he creates through this company plays with the themes of humour, nonsense and futility.
 

Bird Song with a Found Feather will be presented at Spazio Rosanna Orlandi during the Salone del Mobile, 9th-14th April, 2013, Milan. (Also on show will be Applause Machines and Heart Machines).

The Applause Machines can currently be seen at MB&F's MAD Gallery, Rue Verdaine 11, Geneva, Switzerland.
