Toby Christian
Toby Christian’s (b. 1983, Boston, Lincolnshire, UK) practice is wide ranging, multifaceted, incorporating installation and sculpture, drawing as well as animation and importantly writing. Precise and objective, his works can be seen as post-modern dérives; close readings which position a viewer, a reader, in new emotive proximities with the ‘stuff’ of his subject matter—be this the arbitrary and mundane or the antiquated museological.
Education. Toby studied at Wimbledon College of Art, London before completing his postgraduate training at the Royal Academy Schools in 2012, where he was awarded the Gold Medal.
Select exhibitions include String Figures / Fadenspiele, Museum Tinguely, Basel, Switzerland (2024 – 25); Michela de Mattei + Toby Christian: Flash_Looking, Belmacz, London, UK (2024); no odonata, Belmacz, London, UK (2023); Lazy Bones, Casanova, São Paulo, Brazil (2021); Burners, Alessandro Albanese, Milan, Italy, (2019); Old School New Body, Gallery Celine, Glasgow, UK (2019).
Toby lives and works in London, where he is a Senior Lecturer in Fine Art at Central Saint Martins, London (UK).
