Philip Babot creates live occurrences.
His installations embrace the trace elements of the performative act and explore the Zen notion of the space between birth and death.

Based in Wales, he has worked throughout the U.K. and across Europe, the North American continent, and the Far East, both as a solo artist and with influential performance companies such as Brith Gof, as well as collaborating with other international artists. Over the last 20 years he has presented site-specific works globally in diverse locations as well as in traditional art spaces.

He is currently researching his Fine Art PhD Performance Artist as Shaman and Mediator in Contemporary Society at
Cardiff School of Art and Design, UWIC.

Philip is a founder member / board member of trace: installaction artspace, Cardiff, www.tracegallery.org
