Chance is crucial to Tim Knowles’ work, which is generated by apparatus, mechanisms, systems and processes beyond the artist’s control. Working in a range of media from photography and video to drawing and light installation, Knowles creates process-oriented works that rely on chance and environmental elements. In 2009 Knowles mounted a large weathervane onto a helmet and walked wherever the wind led him through the city and countryside - the final piece consisting of video and GPS tracks from this event. Knowles’ foray into a more man-made process resulted in Recorded Delivery (2011). To create this collection of video and still images, Knowles hid a tiny camera and GPS device in a package and recorded the 20 hours of the object’s journey through the U.K.’s postal system.
