Description

Ant Hamlyn (*1993) is based in London, where he creates sculptures that blend handmade and digital fabrication techniques. His art explores our evolving relationship with contemporary life, often featuring anthropomorphic elements and playing with metaphors, technology, and the contrast between solidity and softness to evoke tactile and surprising experiences through material and visual ambiguity. Hamlyn’s work often produces artifacts from a familiar yet parallel realm, drawing inspiration from plants, nostalgia, preservation, and magic.
