Mark Fuller was born in Suffolk in 1965. He did an art and design foundation course at Ipswich and from there went to the Royal College of Art. He lives and works in Suffolk, where he trained and worked for five years as a blacksmith.

He has his own forge workshop and makes his sculpture from metal he has forged himself. Fuller is also a performance artist. In one of his most memorable works, he went shopping in a supermarket dressed in a rubber suit. He is currently growing a sponsored half-beard for charity. His recent work has looked at incorporating metal with woodcarving and plaster. A strong influence has been his interest in science fiction and ‘the science fictional’. He has exhibited widely in East Anglia.
