Paul Noble

Paul Noble is a British artist, draughtsman and sculptor living and working in London.

Paul Noble studied at Sunderland Polytechnic and Humberside College of Higher Education in Hull. He was one of the five founding members of City Racing, an influential community of artists in London in the 1990s.

Although his practice encompasses drawing, sculpture and animation, Paul Noble is known primarily as a meticulous draftsman creating complex schemes. His compositions, based on fictional urban architecture, reflect disorder, circuit logic and self-portraiture at the same time. His best known conceptual project, Nobson Newtown, was first shown in a solo exhibition at Chisenhale Gallery in 1998. This series of large-scale drawings depicts a fictional city run by architect Paul, Noble's alter ego.

In addition to pencil drawings, the artist works in a combined drypoint and aquatint technique. He starts drawing from the upper left corner, gradually filling the entire space, and some large-scale drawings reach a size of 7 x 6 meters.
