Norman Mine

“I am seeking to express a continual exploration of the paradoxes at play in language, association and identification, shifting and exploring different medium is critical to my practice”

Norman Mine is an exploration of the blurring line between what its consider to be reality, stage and theatricality; exploring issues of image and identity, the projection of the persona into everyday life and the restrictions of convention and expectation, institution and individual.

Restriction becomes the focus of Mine’s practice –underlying it there is a desire to tease, question and challenge both the audience and his persona. Like all relationships this exchange holds both worship and revulsion.


Mine’s investigate how his work can transpose from one scenario to another in order to challenge its material characteristic and meaning, with the aim to explore the interaction between art and life and that of society and individual.
