As an Artist, my practice examines the way in which people build their identities by physically interacting with each other. To me, this form of engagement is a reflection of their experience and understanding of the world. I see the human body as an instrument to physically relate to others and to the environment. Because of this, my pieces tend to either represent or reference actions executed by humans with their bodies. I currently run life drawing and sculpture courses at Bath Artists' Studios, where I hope to share my passions with my students.
Martin Ortiz de Taranco (He/Him)
I am an artist specialising in sculpture, photography and performance and I graduated from Bath Spa University in 2021, where I completed a BA in Fine Art. I am also the current resident artist at Bath Artists' Studios.
My practice revolves around the human body as an instrument to understand the world, through physically interacting with others and with the environment. I have been passionate for drawing the human form for a long time, which has led me to participate in life drawing classes and workshops for more than 20 years. I became a life model in 2013 and since then, I have worked for several universities in Bristol and Bath, as well as for individual artists and associations.
