Sketch for a kilnman III, 2025, Custom woven textile inset with refractory tile over shaped substrate, 37 x 42 x 6cm, Nigel Massey
A graduate of the Royal Academy Schools, Massey has been shown in public and commercial institutions including Oriel Mostyn and APT Creekside gallery. Prizes include RA Schools Turner Gold Medal, Crash Open winner (Charlie Dutton Gallery) and Space Studio Award.
Based in South London, I bring together fabricated works made in collaboration with their respective trades. Previous professional experience as a bronze caster has made me mindful of the dangers of high production-value manufacture and of the Medusa-like affect this may have on ideas. I design objects to be fabricated then deconstruct and re-find their role—shedding light into the shadows between processes.
