Ceal Floyer (b.1968) Pakistan is a British artist known for her work in a variety of mediums that share a humorously wry approach to language and the semiotics of the every-day. She consistently engages the discourse surrounding Conceptual Art, Minimalism, Post-minimalism, the Ready-Made and Technology within her work. Her work is often remarked upon for its visual austerity that stands in stark contrast to the abundant verbal implications and how it precipitates greater conjecture. Floyer recieved a BFA from Goldsmith's College, London, in 1994 and currently lives and works in Berlin. She has had solo exhibitions at Kunst-Werke Berlin in Germany, at the Palais de Tokyo, Paris and the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami, Florida in 2009, as well as at the Kolnischer Kunstverein in 2013. In 2007 she received the Nam June Paik Award from the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin.
