Drawing inspiration from museums and memorials, Paul Tuppeny’s art has developed around an interest in the way that we present our species to ourselves through the display of material culture; for him, the motivations that underlie this behaviour addresses within us an identity of self that transcends the individual and the ‘now’. 

Paul Tuppeny was an architect before choosing a career in art. He completed an MA (with Distinction) in Fine Art in 2016, his work ‘Pinned Limb’ also receiving an award in the National Sculpture Prize in that year. Paul is a member of the Royal Society of Sculptors.
