Charles Sandison

Waterlilies (after Monet)

Charles Sandison (b. 1969, Haltwhistle, United Kingdom) visualises the paradoxical complexities and simplicities of human communication, behaviour and social structures through the use of a symbolic language. His works consist of text, generated by computer software built by the artist and displayed on screens or projected site specifically onto gallery walls or entire buildings. Sandison breaks down the structure of human reproduction and Darwinian survival into visible and ever changing schema and he visually demonstrates the generation and progress of conflict and war in works such as Good & Evil, 2002 or Yes/No, 2003.

He studied at Glasgow school of art and now lives and works in Tampere, Finland.
