Tim Phillips has an extremely varied and investigative practice ranging from the sculptural to the digital - it is in this flux between the real and virtual that his work exists. Ethereal symbolism, from the corporate to the religious, is woven into objects layered in precious veneers, mass-produced plastics and other synthetics. It is from within the technologies that the artist utilises to transform these signs of influence and authority that point towards the strange democracy afforded to us by the machine.
