Profile

I studied at Camberwell School of Art, Edinburgh College of Art, The Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, and Skowhegan School of Art in Maine. I grew up in the Scottish Borders and now live in Duns. 

In 2024 I opened a gallery called No31 (https://no31.uk/ and @no31studio).

About the work


I think, at a very fundamental level, I make art and curate exhibitions because I am looking for evidence of the existence of a continuum. A thread. Witnessing or recording a hare on the hill is much the same as finding a discarded letter on the pavement - a kind of tiny marvel. I would also say that I don’t seek to illustrate ideas - everything is uncertain, everything is unfinished. The process is a flow - thoughts connect where things are made, diverge and then connect again, and so on. The making is also the thinking. 

I make work in a variety of media.

It should go without saying that all the artwork contained in this site is copyright to mark haddon, but I’ll say it anyway: all the artwork contained in this website is copyright to mark haddon 2025
