Mark Leckey: Hugo Boss Prize 2016 Nominee

Mark Leckey, Hugo Boss Prize 2016 nominee, discusses the complexities of his place in the British tradition of art and his interest in nostalgia, shared cultural references, and the “life” of objects. Leckey talks about "Dream English Kid" (2015), a work dealing with anxiety the artist felt as a child, and "The Universal Addressability of Dumb Things" (2013), an investigation into the idea that ordinary objects might have magical properties.
