Mark Humphrey (born 1970) is an English interior designer and installation artist.
Life
Mark Humphrey was born in 1970 in Wiltshire and grew up in Berkshire. In 1988, he studied fine art at Maidenhead Art College and in 1989 he moved to London, studying a BA in interior architecture at Middlesex University from 1989 to 1993. He was awarded the Mipim Award in 2004.
Since the mid 1990s, Humphrey has produced multidisciplinary works – including editions, licences, and studies – in architecture, graphics, installations, objects, paintings, rooms, and sculptures. He develops the relationships between ideas, materials, finishes, making, and audience interaction. His catalogue spans the entire creative operation, from sketches through to physical objects and spaces. His mixed media studies – collages, drawings, maquettes, montages, paintings, reliefs, sculptures, sketchbooks, and sketches – define his work style.
