“I try to create work that has multiple layers of understanding. Work that, in a way, rewards those that choose to spend more time with it, uncovering certain conceptual elements and symbolic choices.”- Bob Bicknell-Knight for Coeval magazine

Bob Bicknell-Knight is an artist, curator and writer, working in several mediums including installation, sculpture, video, and digital media. His work is influenced by surveillance capitalism and responds to the hyper consumerism of the internet. Utopia, dystopia, automation, surveillance and digitization of the self are some of the themes that arise through his critical examination of contemporary technologies.
