Arran Gregory is a British Sri-Lankan artist working across sculpture, film and performance based in London, UK.
His practice seeks to perceive the self through nature, rather than nature through the self.
Often journeying into remote landscapes, he sees clay as a living language by which to tune into the voice of our environments where he works with natural materials gathered directly from the land.
His current Earth Body journeys are a series of experiential land art interventions, unfolding under the guidance of the elements and through the narrative of time. They feel both ancient and immediate.
He sees his Earth Body works neither as sculptures, nor installations. They emerge as temporary markers from the ground, shaped between the human hand and the environment. He expands his understandings channelled through this work through various other mediums such as film and performance.
Gregory’s practice offers inquiry into the living world, rooted in sculpture as a means of grounding, a way of working with earth not just as material, but as teacher and meditation.
