I am a contemporary artist who enjoys learning skills to unlock a material’s secrets. Interest in topical discussions surrounding mankind’s relationship with environments has dictated my material choice in previous works, namely glass and neon. My thirst for a direct response has also seen recent works executed through performance.
Raised in Yorkshire, England, Wheater has studied in Leeds, Edinburgh, New York and Sunderland. He has worked for studios in Seattle, Cornwall and London and presently works from his studio in Wakefield.
