Madi Boyd
Madi Boyd graduated from the sculpture department in 2005 from The Slade School of Fine Art, UCL. She specialised in creating largescale sculptures fused with digital projections. During her degree she won the Gissings undergraduate scholarship, and an exchange to the highly competitive Cooper Union School for the Advancement of Art and Science, New York City, where she studied sculpture under the renowned artist Hans Haacke. Whilst their Madi studied Optics and Synaesthesia. Madi uses sculpture, light and digital media to create experiential environments that play with depth perception and the connection between seeing and knowing. Her training as a sculptor has led her to investigate the sculpting of light: for her, a pitchdark room serves as the blank canvas. Sculpting physical space as if it were matter, she uses perceptual ambiguity to create environments that perform. She has exhibited several times, and been selected for a variety of exhibitions including the Kinetica Art Fair, Shunt, Launch of the Cultural Olympiad, London, The Cut Arts Centre, Suffolk, The London Group Show at The Menier Gallery, Illumini Exhibition at The Crypt Gallery, St. Pancras Church, Suffolk Showcase at Bury St.Edmunds Art Gallery.
