TOM STOCKLEY

Tom Stockley is a lo-fi performer, writer, designer, organiser and occasional statue based in the South West of England. Informed by a century of counter-culture, his practice is parasitic and flirts with the humour, beauty and sadness of every day life by any means necessary (including spoken word as t.s. idiot, DIY venue Space 37 and annual festival Langaland). In 2016 he led workshops at Newlyn Art Gallery, appeared as a rock in an international theatre production and burnt his degree. In 2017 he worked as the resident artist in Mayfield School and appeared in a BBC3 Documentary. Right now he lives in Bristol with some humans and reptiles, working on various projects with We Are Uncollective.

Among his influences are: Richard Hell, Genesis P-Orridge, Lady Gaga, Fox Bronte, Marcel Duchamp, Jeremy Deller, Ray Johnson, David Robilliard, Bas Jan Ader, Chris Burden, Angus Fairhurst, William Pope. L, Andy Warhol, LINDER, Viva Hamnell, William Burroughs, David Lynch, Leigh Bowery, Mark Wallinger, Maurizio Cattelan, Marvin Gaye Chetwynd, The Gob Squad, Daniel Johnston, Grayson Perry, Poly Styrene, Martin Creed, David Shrigley and George Lucas.
