For artists
who need more than
a fabricator.

Evil Genius Studios helps artists, galleries and public art projects worldwide design, prototype and manufacture ambitious work across sculpture, print, wood, metal, solid surface, acrylic, resin, 3D modelling, lighting, electronics and technology-led production.

UK BASED  /  WORKING WORLDWIDE  /  NDA AVAILABLE

The workshop behind the work.

Some artists arrive with drawings. Some arrive with paintings. Some arrive with a sculpture, a reference, a material sample or one sentence that starts with: “I don’t know if this is possible, but…”

That is usually where we come in.

Evil Genius Studios is the hidden manufacturing partner behind ambitious artwork. Many artists have the idea, the sketch, the painting, the sculpture or the concept — but need a trusted production partner to work out how it should be made.

A lot of that work stays private. That is part of the job.

We help decide how it should be made.

Should it be carved from wood? Fabricated from metal? UV-printed onto aluminium? Built from solid surface? 3D-printed? Lit from inside? Made as a one-off? Produced as an edition?

We help answer those questions.

If it needs to glow, move, react or surprise people — we can build that into the work.

Embedded LEDs, hidden wiring, sensors, motors, sound, code, screens, microcontrollers, interactive elements, timed sequences, movement and quiet hidden mechanisms — designed to disappear into the artwork rather than sit on top of it.

Some projects can be shown. Some stay confidential. That is part of the job.

Confidential by default.

Many artists, galleries and creative agencies need discretion. Some projects are unreleased. Some are commercially sensitive. Some involve new ideas, private collections, edition production or work the artist does not want publicly linked to a manufacturing partner.

We understand that.

Evil Genius Studios can work under NDA before drawings, sketches, concepts or production methods are shared. We do not show private client work without approval.
