Tian Mu, born in China in 1985, lives and works in London. He is studying for a Sculpture MA at the Royal College of Art in London. His recent projects include a public sculpture at Broomhill Sculpture Park, a solo exhibition at London's Dirty House, and a residency program at ZK/U Berlin. He is also a member of the UK's Royal Society of Sculptors.
Diversity in images is the visual basis of Tian's work. Reference to Greek mythology, for example, can be easily seen at his solo exhibition in Beijing. He also selected some distinctive characters from contemporary cartoons, giving them a brand-new context.
