Personal life and educationPaul William Mason was born on 23 June 1952 in Bolton, Lancashire.[1] Mason first married Susan Disley, a ceramicist, with whom he had a son, Joseph. He later married a painter, Emma Talbot, to whom he was married at the time of his death. Together they had sons Zachary and Daniel.[1] As of 2006, Emma was the Head of Painting and Two-Dimensional (2D) at St Martin's College, University of the Arts, London.[2] Mason studied first at Bolton College of Art & Design from 1970 to 71. Next he studied at Wolverhampton Polytechnic from 1971 to 74, under John Paddison, and finally at the Royal Academy from 1974 to 77, under Willi Soukop.[1][3] CareerHe is known for his exterior sculptures, dubbed "iconic stone carved pieces that are large scale interpretations of natural form", but he also painted, drew, created collages and made smaller sculptures.[4] Of his works, Mason said: My works attempt to recognise and emulate the natural forces inherent in both carving and the geology. There is something deeply attractive and satisfying about the sculptural processes on both scales, and the dialogue between them that occurs quite naturally within the fragment and the whole.[1] He taught from 1993–1997 at Northumbria University. Mason taught at Derby University after Northumbria.[2] In 2004, at Derby University, he became Professor of Sculpture.[1] Mason also taught at art schools in Loughborough and Staffordshire.[1] Mason had in-house residencies in his career, including one at Gloucester Cathedral in 2000–01 and the other in 1996 at Tate St. Ives, where he worked in Barbara Hepworth’s Studio.[2][4] WorksThis is a partial list of Mason's works.
