Thomson & Craighead

Jon Thomson & Alison Craighead (Thomson & Craighead) make artworks that explore the changing socio-political structures of the Information Age. In particular they have been looking at how the digital world is ever more closely connected to the physical world becoming a geographical layer in our collective sensorium. Time is often treated with a sculptor’s mentality, as a pliable quantity that can be moulded and remodelled. Jon is Professor of Fine Art at The Slade School of Fine Art, University College London and Alison is Reader in Contemporary Art at University of Westminster and Reader in Art at Goldsmiths University of London. They live and work between London and Ross & Cromarty
