Tim Head is a British artist, born in 1946. He has done a great deal of experimentation in the art field, working with drawing, printing with ink, video installations, and experiments with UV paint and black lights.
Tim Head has worked in a variety of mediums over the years. Some of his later work, started in the early 2000’s “explores the physical ingredients of digital space.”
And another quote, “The work is motivated by the search for a kind of pictorial and spatial reality which is intrinsic to the computer, and a desire to expose the 'treacherous' nature of the digital space. Head is fascinated by the supposed perfection of the computerised image and the fact that much effort is devoted to creating ever more refined images which eliminate any evidence of the pixel. However, Head is not opposed to such technology per se. Treacherous Light is not about subverting the computer. Rather, in common with so much of his work of the past thirty years, it is about taking a medium (or an idea) and 'laying it bare, making it transparent, showing it for what it is'. [6] It is a part of an ongoing project: a probing but non-judgemental questioning of the world we live in and the technology we surround ourselves with.”
