Congratulations Henry!
Henry is in his 3rd year studying at Norwich University.


"I want the viewer to experience the experience of art".








'I aim to escalate the opportunity for my art to be experienced in a way that is personal and memorable to the viewer, whilst also developing the creative concepts contained in the work'.



'I also have a keen interest in the roles of the artist and the curator in relation to the displaying of art, and how the creative possibilities introduced to the curatorial character have enhanced the development of the artist as a curator.'


















Newcomb's work results from a 'high paced stage of studio experimentation, toying with an encyclopaedic array of materials, new relationships and reactions appear between objects, materials and notes of ideas and concepts.' 

'Producing work through an interdisciplinary selection of mediums encourages me to keep myself fresh with ideas, bending concepts and designs through different materials nd areas of artistic practice'.
