Stuart Dodman

Stuart Dodman is a British artist based in Brighton working across painting, drawing, objects and sound. His practice is concerned with making and material.

Working in series, Dodman makes paintings through repeated acts of covering, applying and excavating paint. Each stage affects what follows, altering the material conditions of the painting's development. Earlier states remain consequential even when they are no longer visible, their effects carried into the surface as it develops.
Dodman holds a BA (Hons) in Fine Art from Sheffield Hallam University. Alongside his visual art, he has worked with sound and object-based installations, with projects released internationally. His work has been exhibited in the UK and internationally and is held in private collections in the USA, Mexico, Canada, Europe and the UK.
