Andrew Mackenzie was born in Banff, North East Scotland, and graduated with an MFA from Edinburgh College of Art in 1993. 

He lives and works in the Scottish Borders, and is a former President of Visual Arts Scotland. 

His work (paintings, drawings, lithographs, etchings, public art and sculptural interventions) explores entangled relationships between architecture, the built environment, and our perceptions of nature, currently with a focus on thresholds and edges. 

He has recently moved into large scale site-specific sculpture, with an ambitious project in the woodland at Marchmont House called Woodland Structure, made from steel and cast bronze.
