My practice is an aggregate, a combination of several process-based ontological investigations and individual elements which sit densely packed together to form a whole. These fragments represent intertwined research-based lines of enquiry through deep time, planetary shaping processes and exploring where the Anthropocene sits within this discourse. My approach is formed through interdisciplinary methodologies, all united in working in a site-responsive way.

It is through these applications that I seek to disrupt human centric perspectives of the Anthropocene, by taking its anthropocentric constructs and dismantling them via their limitations. To reveal new readings of the planet, ones that seek to deconstruct the deeply embedded nature/culture divides.

My processes are governed by key phases of research and analysis of theoretical and cultural complexities across boundaries of science, culture, and the humanities, an exploration in order to lead to the genesis of interdisciplinary results. It is what Robert Smithson defined as ‘abstract geology’ tracing connections between the geological, the body and mental processes.

Whether investigating the planet as a whole, a specific geomorphological process, a locality or a single physical fragment, I examine through enquires across temporal and spatial scales – these create the foundation of my process.

My work is about my passion for colours and how they relate to each other, how they help to create form and space. For me colour expresses how I feel about life and light. The forms and shapes create energy that play together to make a joyful whole.

This energy and movement dance around my work, whether a painting in acrylic or watercolour, printmaking or sculpture, magically incorporating the values and vibrancy to create the harmonious relationships in the finished work.

Tom reconnected with his lifelong interest in Sculpture some years ago. He works from Studios in London and near Blythburgh, Suffolk. His pieces, usually displaying strong mark-making, are executed in clay and are generally figurative. Exhibited in London 2016/17/18/19.

Tom Brent/Urban Resolve Ltd offers consultancy on Property and Design projects. Experience enables us to observe and advise clients impartially, without affecting contracts or relationships with their executive teams. URL is also involved with its own property and furniture design projects from time to time.

Thomas Brent Associates became incorporated in 1986 after some years as an unlimited Architectural and Chartered Design practice. The practice philosophy was to provide imaginative creative Design solutions of integrity and commercial value. The company grew steadily, engaging over 20 Designers and Architects at its offices adjoining Tower Bridge, London. In 1990 a second office was opened in Liverpool, which offered the urban renewal skills acquired from working in and around the regenerating London Docklands. It was a challenging period. Through the long recession of the 1990’s, the Company maintained itself as a boutique practice with up to 6 Architects and Designers offering expertise in the bespoke new build and listed residential sectors. In 1997 despite a strong ongoing workload, a deliberate move was made to cease offering clients a full Architectural and Design implementation service, focussing on Consultancy instead.

Tom Brent qualified as a Chartered Designer after five years study at the City of Guilds and Hornsey Colleges of Art and Design. Concurrent with the later years of education he was fortunate to be apprenticed in the traditional manner to the Architect Piers Gough, one of his various tutors at Hornsey. TB remained apprenticed for 5 years to this acclaimed and highly talented office. At the time of TB’s degree show at Hornsey, three privately commissioned projects were at various stages of development and these became the foundation to starting his own private practice some years later.

Tom Brent MCSD BA(hons) is married with three children and lives in Suffolk and London.

I am particularly drawn site-specific artwork embodied within landscape.  I am drawn towards liminal edges and enjoy delving into little known subjects to look beyond the obvious that have layered meanings and ideas. I am interested in physics – quarks and photons and co-wrote a scientific paper Evolutionary Waterways with Dr Alan Rayner which tracks evolution from a new perspective. In gaining my MA in Art Practice I created several video installations with interactive aspects. Most recently I showed in the 2019 Venice Biennale at Palazzo Pesaro. I also created The Caroline Club — a week long exhibition at The Lookout, Aldeburgh in August 2019.

Nick developed his artistic practice as a mature student over the past 20 years. He has exhibited his work across the region and wider UK events and exhibitions.

Claire is a multidisciplinary visual artist also known as ‘eyeseethingsdifferently’. She is hugely inspired by nature, and since relocating to Norfolk from Essex, can often be found wandering around the Norfolk coastline and Broads, getting close up to the fascinating displays created naturally and being imbued with energy to create. Claire’s research revolves around assessing our impact on the environment and how the environment affects our mental health.

As a sculptural based artist currently studying for my postgraduate degree in Fine Art my practice is comprised of several avenues, however predominantly explores themes of value, heritage, myth and narrative within the context of the object. Although my primary discipline is sculpture, I use a number of multi-disciplined techniques within my practice in order to do justice to the concepts I explore. I gather much of my inspiration from the fusion of historical and heritage based, themes, processes and locations merged with contemporary techniques, to create objects which are reminiscent of the past yet provocative and relevant to the present day. My work is often site-specific and uses fragments of memory and ambiguous forms. Material is of high importance to my way of working, as it correlates directly to the language of the object.
