Alistair McClymont

Underlying Alistair McClymont’s interdisciplinary creative practice is a deep concern for beauty and reason, explored through collaboration with scientists. Many of his artworks take the form of direct demonstration or experimentation: by isolating phenomena, McClymont reimagines them, highlighting the balance between order and chaos, while questioning humanity's role in a science-defined era.

His work spans a variety of media from sculptural installation, painting, and photography, to video, new media digital art, and the publication of scientific research papers.

Many of his Artworks take the form of direct demonstration or experimentation. By isolating phenomena from the world, McClymont represents and re-evaluates them in novel creative contexts. Concepts are allowed to define the forms they take, and projects are designed to highlight the delicate, generative balance between order and chaos in the very systems used to create them.
