"Mark Doyle�s work is driven by a curiosity for processes and materials. He draws from diverse sources, then deconstructs, combines and reconfigures these images and objects into prints, paintings and sculptural installations.

A fascination with mark-making is evident, his images deconstruct spacial illusion in a conflation of lines, dots and blurs. The subjects of his source material reflect the everyday; buildings, garden plants, a campfire, but through what he describes as a �process of refraction�, they are altered with devices that disrupt the easy contemplation of the source. In Doyle�s work a tension seems to exists between the almost cinematic quality of his compositions and the mode of delivery, where obstacles to pictorial depth increase the ambiguity between image and object.

Recent developments have seen screenprinted elements collaged and composed to create non-editioned works reflecting Doyle�s experimental approach to print.

Doyle graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 2005 with a BA in painting and since then has exhibited widely, taken part in a number of residencies and worked on public art commissions including for Edinburgh Printmakers� Permanent Commissions Programme."
