Artworks

​

Colin Higginson’s art practice spans sculpture, installation, photography, film, and performance, exploring themes of time, memory, and the human condition. Influenced by his interest in archaeology and time spent in museums and archives, he examines the relationship between sculptural objects and archival materials. Through both the making of sculpture and methods of display, he reconfigures these connections to open space for new narratives and interpretations.

His recent work turns to the quiet forms of the natural world—rocks, crystals, branches—drawing on their enduring presence to question ideas of authenticity, imitation, and the everyday, particularly in light of our shifting relationship with the environment under climate change. These sculptural pieces reflect the permanence of nature and the fragility of human experience, inviting reflection on what endures and what fades.
