Jacob Talbot is a contemporary artist working across sculpture, installation, and photography, with a practice rooted in the belief that art can offer stillness and mindfulness. His work centres on the creation of immersive environments that invite quiet reflection, often responding directly to natural landscapes and the sensory experience of being within them. A First Class Honours graduate in BA Photography from Leeds Arts University (2021), Talbot gained early recognition through his debut solo exhibition An Isolated State, funded by Leeds Inspired, and The Signature Art Prize. His work has since been collected internationally and recognised through a number of accolades, including selection for the British Consulate-General Pavilion in Hong Kong, shortlisting for the Aesthetica Art Prize and BBA One Shot Award, and most recently, ‘The Labyrinth’ being commissioned by Kirkstall Abbey. Through an evolving interdisciplinary approach, Talbot continues to expand his sculptural practice, developing site-responsive works that foster moments of stillness and connection within both public and natural contexts.
