Graham Williams’s sculptures are concerned with light, space and material form. He exploits the qualities of his medium – most commonly stainless steel and bronze – to enhance reflection and the play of light on different surfaces. In some of his more recent sculptures he has also introduced a vivid use of primary colour. With meticulous concern for process Williams creates sculptures of purity and simplicity in material, colour and form.  

Graham Williams first started making sculpture in 1987. He is also a distinguished artist in the field of fine hand printing and wood engraving. His sculpture is in collections in England, Scotland, Belgium, France, Italy, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, Japan, the West Indies and USA.
