  Mark Wayman
   
 
   
  For Concrete Dreams Wayman will haunt the quayside behind the APT gallery as the sick ghost of its faded parts.
   
  Mark Wayman takes as his starting point the fabric, function and significance of a chosen location. Through an intense verbal description of it he spins an elaborate alternative version. The place may be mundane, but the artist's meticulous monologues reveal its miniature histories, disturbing our perception of what may previously have seemed familiar.
  Wayman studied at Cardiff School of Art, Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Lancaster Universities. He has exhibited widely in the UK and Europe, most recently at Marylebone Fire station, the Olympic site viewing gallery, Camden Arts Centre and the Stephen Lawrence Gallery, Greenwich.
  Born 1964, West Midlands, UK Mark Wayman lives and works in London.
