Installation shot of Rhian Cooke's work in Associated Matter at Yorkshire Sculpture Park

Graduating from Leeds Arts University in 2017, Rhian Cooke (b. 1995) creates small scale 3d objects in response to site specific spaces. Resulting works often then include 2d video footage and 3d installations.

Cooke’s work responds to the history and unique locations of where she is creating and exhibiting her work, bringing together both traditional sculptural techniques and contemporary digital video.

In 2019, Rhian Cooke took part in Yorkshire Sculpture International's Associate Artist programme which gave her a grant, mentoring from Yorkshire Sculpture Park and a series of workshops and professional development training. The five Associate Artists exhibited their work together in the Bothy Gallery at Yorkshire Sculpture Park during July 2019.
