Mark Templeton transforms archival and found media into immersive audiovisual collages. He constructs compositions from found sounds, reel-to-reel tape loops, sampled cassettes, his 35mm photographs and appropriated video, layering these elements with digital sound and image techniques. His photobooks, exhibitions, and live performances explore memory, fantasy, and sensory perception. Much of his work is released through Graphical, the audiovisual label he founded to publish his own musical and image based experiments in 2015.
Since 2007, Templeton has released work both solo and collaboratively, including Two Verses (2024, Faitiche) and Inner Light (2024, Enmossed). His 2024 exhibition A GUIDE TO INNER LIGHT, presented at Solas Gallery in Seattle, assembled found slides, sound, and installation, later extending into a book and cassette. His performances and installations have appeared at galleries, festivals, and alternative spaces across North America, Europe, the United Kingdom, and China.
