Steve Dutton

Steve Dutton is an artist currently based in the South West of England, where he maintains a studio at Spike Island in Bristol. His work has been widely exhibited both in the UK and internationally, including a recent commission for the Fluxus Museum Experimental Video Prize in Parikia, Greece. While his practice spans drawing, performance, sound, moving image, and text, it all circles back to his enduring interest in language. His artworks are characterised by this fluid movement between various media and conceptual frameworks, immersed in acts of reading, drawing, painting, speaking, writing, and imagining.

Exploring how language intersects with space and time, he is currently developing a new body of work titled "The Phantom Industry."

Dutton is also an Emeritus Professor of Fine Art at Bath Spa University and has held several professorial appointments, including positions at Bath Spa University, the University of Lincoln, and Coventry University. An occasional curator, he creates collaborative environments that challenge conventions of the curatorial process.
