Paul Cummins MBE

Installation artist Paul Cummins MBE explores the human relationship with nature, he creates dramatic artworks that alter our experience of both interior and exterior spaces.

Paul Cummins MBE is a ceramic installation artist from Chesterfield, Derbyshire. Cummins' reputation has grown exponentially over the last few years, with a number of high-profile commissions nationally and internationally. His bold, exuberant organic flowers and vibrant glazes, combined with the raw presence of steel and wire, deliver arresting results.

‘The ceramic poppies at the Tower of London drew millions, and the only possible reaction to seeing them and walking among them was silence… For every poppy a life; and a reminder of the grief of loved ones left behind.’
