Bradley Tooke

BA (Hons) Fine Art

Acrylic painting of a desk with an open laptop, painted on Aluminium. Two TV screens next to the painting show videos of the painting process and digitally written poetry.
Award Winner

My work aims to explore the nature of interaction through painting. My recent work involves using the ‘act of painting’ as an input method to create digitally generated cut-up poetry and images.

A timelapse video of painting. Each brush mark causes a different digital shift on a connected screen, the act of painting writes poetry on the screen.

I use cut fragments, pieces taken away from their original context and placing them in a new setting to make my works. By connecting multiple fragments together, each ‘piece’ is able to apply its own isolated narrative but is also able to interact with any number of other fragments to make new narratives within its new context.

A collection of 9 screen prints which all use the same base image. Each one is unique but the same as the other prints.

I often treat the making process as a game, applying rules and limitations. This process of cause and effect is something I particularly enjoy exploring in my work.
