Eddie Peake works with performance, video, photography, painting, sculpture, sound and installation.  His art often takes the form of immersive exhibitions that connect diverse and incongruous objects, weaving autobiographical elements and an examination of self-identity with more general themes of desire, the body and the urban landscape. Through his work he explores the implicit drama within relationships, whether familial, professional, romantic, sexual or social, and how desire, sexuality, socio-political and cultural constructs, as well as psychological states such as depression impact on them. One particular preoccupation is with the lapses and voids inherent in the process of translating between verbal language and nonverbal modes of communication. It is in the discrepancy between words and any other language, say, images, emotions, bodily movements or sounds, that his art is located.
