Martin Creed

Martin Creed is a British artist recognized for his diverse work across sculpture, installation, performance, and music. His art often explores everyday objects and experiences, emphasizing simplicity and minimalism to evoke emotional or conceptual responses. Creed is perhaps best known for his piece "Work No. 227: The lights going on and off," a simple light switch that highlights attention to ordinary actions. His approach challenges traditional ideas of art by focusing on the process and experience rather than complexity or technical skill, prompting viewers to consider the meaning and context of seemingly simple actions and objects.
