Born and raised near Margate, Kent, S Mark Gubb lives and works in Cardiff. He
works across a range of media incorporating sculpture, video, sound, installation
and performance. The subjects for his work are drawn from the social and
political culture he grew up in; an equal fascination with things he finds so great
and so terrible about the world we live in. This often takes the form of a re-
evaluation and re-interpretation of contemporary culture and history, provoking
us to consider our contribution to the world we live in. His work aims to suggest a
wider discourse around history, culture and belief systems, inviting reflection on
our moral codes and desire and ability to impact upon and change the world we
inhabit.
An exploration on the nature of our very existence, Gubb’s solo exhibition at
aspex will take its title from a line in the film, How Should I Live? (Maybe That’s
Not The Question).
