Introducing Tyrone Vera

MA Sculpture - Royal College of Art, London, UK

BA (Hons) 3D Design Crafts, First Class Honors - Arts University Plymouth

Tyrone Vera’s work is deeply rooted in the spirit of play. Always captivated by the uninhibited creativity and boundless imagination that play evokes, Vera strives to capture this intrinsic joy and curiosity in his expansive practice. Vera’s artistic practice involves a dynamic interplay of colours, geometry, and textures, reminiscent of the spontaneity and experimentation found in play. He combines traditional techniques, such as investment casting, with innovative methods like 3D printing and rendering. Inspired by the theory of Loose Parts, he incorporates elements that can be moved, combined, redesigned, and taken apart, allowing his installations and whimsical sculptures to become participatory and encourage hands-on, physical experiences. His interactive body of work, ‘Play + Work = Plork,’ features modular components that visitors can reimagine, fostering creativity and engagement.
