Alan Warburton
Alan Warburton is a queer British artist whose technologically articulate practice has involved the production of short films, prints, sculptures, 3D models, AR and VR experiences. Central to his work is a critically literate understanding of the commercial computer generated (CG) image, which he explores through focussed software ‘studies’ and video essays, the latest of which (“Goodbye Uncanny Valley”) gained him a global reputation as an artist at the forefront of debates around media, film and technology. Alan studied Critical Fine Art Practice at Brighton University from 2002 – 2005, then Digital VFX at Escape Studios in 2007. He is currently undertaking a practice-based New Media MA at London South Bank University and part of their Centre for the Study of the Networked Image. He is also an artist-in-residence at London’s Somerset House Studios.
