Exploring how the constant flood of images in the modern world has alienated us from our authentic voice, his works...

Robert Montgomery is a Scottish-born, London-based contemporary artist and poet. He is renowned for his large-scale light works using words and poetry installed in public spaces. As well as his evocative light poems, which use environmentally friendly LED lights, he is well known for his billboard poems, fire poems, woodcuts, paintings and watercolours. 

Exploring how the constant flood of images in the modern world has alienated us from our authentic voice, his works explore political and ecological themes, with particular focus on the tension between the digital and natural world. The distinctly lyrical voice of his visual poetry invites to reconnect with nature, offering a moment of pause and introspection.
'I see a contemporary world where our consciousness has been increasingly invaded by digital media which is designed to both sell us things, and to create conflict between us. I think our psychological struggle now is to free ourselves from that digital realm and put ourselves back into the natural world, back into real space and time, to urgently re-establish our kinship with nature 鈥 our connection to trees and sky 鈥 and to re-establish our kinship with each other'
