Jack Kinsman – MA/MFA

Jack Kinsman is a London-based artist with a background in architecture. His work explores the cross over between the two disciplines while constantly questioning how our bodies, as animals, relate to their environment. He is fascinated by how predatory and prey animals determine waste and so his work often repurposes waste material.
