About the artist, Peter Root:
On graduating from the Fine Art BA Hons at University College Falmouth in 2000, my work was initially very much about highly repetitive techniques and algorithmic procedures applied to restricted units such as lines on a page or pieces of metal (see the Transformer series on my website).
In 2001 I spent ten weeks at the Chitraniketan Artist Residency in Kerala, South India and exhibited the resulting work in an exhibition titled ‘Nearly Everything’ at a gallery in Thiruvananthapuram (see Under-Construction on my website). Prior to and since returning to Guernsey I have traveled extensively throughout South America and Asia.
My work experience includes a variety of professions such as architecture, contemporary media production and education. These jobs have always been very supportive of my life as an artist and have all had a massive impact on the type of artwork I create. Architecture has always been an influence on my work; this can be seen in my use of architectonic models (both digital and physical) and technical drawing skills.
