Tony Cragg

Born in Liverpool in 1949, Tony initially started a career as a laboratory assistant and helped to test, manipulate and develop different types of rubber. Whilst working he decided to draw to try and understand the the experiments further and thus this led to the significant of the drawings becoming more to him than the experiments.

I found his work really inspiring as it made me consider silhouette and really think about the shapes in which could be effective. I liked the idea of having layers, and different sections that fit together. I think this could really emphasis the idea and represent how there is unnatural elements that lie within natural environments. How different substances come together to make something new and exciting.
