Martin Toloku

Samboleap Tol Morgan Ton

Martin Toloku is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice evolved over the years from carving to installation, performance, video work, studio practice and collaboration with animals, specifically termites and aquatic species. He is fascinated about the deterioration of materials and the memories they inhabit. Through experimental inquiries, he seeks to explore spontaneity as a revolutionary aesthetic while investigating decay in relation to time, space, life, and death.
