Scott Myles

BIOGRAPHY

Scott Myles is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in Glasgow. Originally from Dundee, he studied at city’s Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design where he currently lectures in Contemporary Art Practice.

His work is not limited to a singular medium - instead he moves between sculpture, drawing, photography, printmaking, and performance art. If there is a signature to his work it isn’t to be found in a single aesthetic or ‘look’, or in the use of a particular material, but in the ideas and concepts that underpin all his projects. He is interested in the business of making art, modes of display and ideas concerning repetition of original gestures and the appropriation of processes.

Scott Myles has produced editions with Edinburgh Printmakers' specialist technicians. His work appeared in the 2009 exhibition, New Commissions and the 2022 exhibition, Workshop. Scott Myles' solo exhibitions include Spiral Bound, Meyer Riegger, Berlin; Potlatch, Maison Lafayette, Paris; and This Way Out, The Modern Institute, Glasgow. Collections that contain his work include Tate, London; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; British Council Collection, UK; Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh and Gallery of Modern Art, Glasgow.
