Steve Tyerman | Artist

I am creating things based on the world around me, the way I see it and my experiences in it.

I am not interested in imitating a motif, I am concerned with creating art, material interpretations based on my own visual and emotional sensations of a given subject. As with every new experience we have, these works are shaped by previous experiences, they are informed by the people, art, literature and travels that have helped shape who I am and the way I see the world.

My most recent work is directly inspired by the literature I read, Shakespeare being most prominent. Great literature, like all great art, provokes thought and ideas, it reflects but transcends the age in which it was created. Through classic literature I have gained an interest in the ancients and their mythology, and it is when I am able to draw direct parallels from these sources with my own life and experiences that I endeavour to create new interpretations of these human themes.
