About
Mark Burden is a multi-disciplinary artist working with traditional and digital media, exploring how the boundaries of identity and meaning are blurred as new technologies are embraced.
Concepts of identity, truth, history, surveillance are malleable and modified by human interaction with machines. The artist explores these themes primarily visually, using physical, imaginative and historic sites and identities.
Burden states, “My research and practice explores in a focused (project based) manner the nuanced psychological spaces where the ancient, historic and contemporary vernacular layer and co-exist together and something authentic but enigmatic emerges.”
