https://mkg.me.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/mkg.mp4 Mick Kirkby-Geddes, that’s me, a metal sculptor. Born in Sheffield, i now live in Holmfirth in the Pennine hills of West Yorkshire. I’m based at Sculpture Lounge , home to 24 different artists studios in nearby Holmbridge. I finished a three year Fine Art Degree at Leeds Polytechnic in 1988 then set out on my own as a sculptor and haven’t done anything else since. It was at Leeds that i started using scrap metal because the materials budget ran out and I’ve never looked back since. Influenced by cartoons, 1970s kids tv, books, in fact anything really, I make sculptures to go inside and outside, public art, do commissions and sometimes work
