Mads Washbrook (b. 2001) is a British multi-disciplinary artist and writer, who mainly explores themes of abjection, feminism, the body, and post-human Being. This is explored primarily through sculpture, fictional narratives, poetry, film, and performance, which merge and collide within a kaleidoscopic practice to confront the audience and their perceptions of women, body, waste, and the future.
