Julian Wild has been making sculpture for 30 years. After graduating from Kingston University, Wild worked as an assistant to Damian Hirst before developing his own career path.
He was awarded The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea Arts club Trust Studio Bursary from 2009-2012. He won an individual Arts Council Grant in 2011, in 2005 he was a finalist in the Jerwood Sculpture Prize and won the Millfield Sculpture Prize in the same year.
Julian Wild s works allude to minimalist sculptures disrupted by interventions and gestures within their form. He often uses colour as an agent to exaggerate the contrast between elements within a work. He uses colour as a signifier and signal maker.
The Indeterminate sculptures emerged from the internal sections of the Systems series. These works are loosely based on perennials and weeds but are made in industrial box section steel and bronze. They attempt to emulate natural structures.
