Jacob Wolff has joined the MCS Art department as 'artist in residence':

"I make work that uses signals. A signal is a combination of sign and symbol that enables communication. Light, flags, pattern, maps, numbers and letters allow expression, interaction and understanding. I aim for the viewer to read as well as see.

During the residency I am making sculpture that uses the digital system in grid formations to make words and numbers physical. The shape of the digits is brought into direct relation to space, colour, movement and perspective.

The time in the studio at MCS is allowing me to work through my ideas and develop them in detail. Working amongst the students has made me more aware of the processes I go through and articulated my ambitions for each piece. "
