Martin Honert (born 1953) is an artist based in Dusseldorf.

Honert was born in Bottrop, Germany. He makes sculpture and installation which freeze-frame images from the artist’s childhood memories.[1] He is known for employing time-consuming techniques which results in a slow completion rate of work.[2][3]
