Henry HudsonBiography
Henry Hudson is a British artist who makes paintings, sculpture, etchings and performance-based work. He graduated from Central St. Martins and lives and works in London.
Hudson’s medium of choice has primarily been plasticine. With this material he creates paintings that have a depth and sculptural quality that cannot be replicated with oil paint. In preparation he softens the plasticine over a hotplate so that it can be manipulated with his fingers. It is the mixed, empastoed thickly on board in several layers of colour, finally sculpted and texturised with biros, paint brushes and other make-shift tools.
