Timothy Hamilton: Lecture and Installation at University of Wisconsin-Stout

We are pleased to announce that Timothy Hamilton (Sculpture and Printmaking, '15) was recently featured as a visiting artist at the University of Wisconsin-Stout. Invited to lecture to undergraduate students, Hamilton also installed a new work in their gallery "A Clean, Poorly Lighted Space" and took some time for studio visits with selected students. Hamilton spoke about his background in the military, how it has affected his interests in analysis, and about his critical investigation of transportation systems in his ongoing project "Recordings".

Timothy Jay Hamilton works in mixed media sculpture, print, and drawing, investigating the interactions between complex and diverse systems that make up the frameworks of contemporary society. Inspired by human inventiveness and rule-based processes, his work blends the realms of scientific exploration and creative expression, often inventing new systems in order to examine others. His work observes the interconnectedness of man-made systems as woven together into a new kind of environment just as diverse and multifaceted as our natural one. He received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Oregon in 2012, is a 2014 University of Minnesota WorkART Fellow, and a current MFA candidate at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
