Cerith Wyn Evans

Cerith Wyn Evans (born in 1958 in Llanelli, Wales, lives and works near London) began his career as an artist in the 1980s with music videos and experimental short films. Today, he is not only known as a filmmaker, but also as a conceptual artist. Texts, mirrors, plants, film projections, photographs, neon objects, neon lettering and various other light sources are often used in his formally reduced installations. Light, language, time and the recipients’ perception thereof are central themes in Evan’s oeuvre, which contains a multitude of references to literature, philosophy, music, film, theater and works by other visual artists.
