Tyler James Goin is a Vancouver-based sculptor and designer working primarily in clay, metal, and wood under the studio name Noise Assembly. He is best known for sculptural ceramic vessels, and also makes sculptural furniture and objects. The studio gratefully operates on the unceded traditional territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh nations, also known as Vancouver, BC, Canada.
His work explores the inherent characteristics of clay, metal, and wood, bridging a connection through gestural forms and finishes inspired by the materials' own nature. That approach comes from a technical foundation as a Red Seal Millwright and machinist, and from an apprenticeship with sculptor Tony Bloom from age 15 to 25 on large-scale public works in metal. In his Extruded Series, he uses a clay extrusion machine he built from salvaged industrial components.
In 2025 he received the Judson Beaumont Emerging Artist designation of the BC Achievement Foundation's Sam Carter Award in Applied Art + Design. His work is represented by TIWA Select, Rhett Baruch Gallery, SEER Gallery, and Addition Agency, and has been exhibited in Vancouver, New York, Los Angeles, and London.
Why “Noise Assembly”?
Noise has the ability to either obscure, or magnify as a function. This appears embedded in the practice of contemplation through pursuing what it means to find balance in expression, and heavily considers the economies of the human spirit as a guiding force for discovery.
