About Martin Smith
In 2019 Martin showed a selection of his colourful, witty and beautifully engineered machines in the exhibition Little Machines.
His sculptures can often be seen in the Courtyard. His Kinetic Trees are currently on show, and you may remember the Concentric Wave machine which used to sit in front of the Gallery entrance.
Martin is also making some sculptures for our new Art Trail project.
