About The Artwork

This work began life as a broken garden chair. I dismantled and cut it into pieces to form an abstracted portrait, and painted an image of its previous likeness onto the surface - a process that happily created more questions than answers. The title refers to a cognitive bias whereby people perceive their knowledge of others to surpass other peoples knowledge of themselves. I do wonder if the chair is happier being an artwork or a utilitarian object...?

Martin lives and works in Eastleigh, a town sandwiched between the New Forest and the South Downs. His practice explores the relationship between support and image, material and surface. Sampling from art history and borrowing from everyday objects, the work mixes elements together from disparate areas to form subtle conceits. Although systems-based in conception, Martin investigates the point at which a work becomes its own thing, in spite of the myriad references and processes that have informed its making.
