Artist Biography:
Jimmy Cobb is a painter and sculptor based in and around the midwest United States. Aer finalizing his education at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, Cobb’s current conceptual work delves into the idea of interaction between subject and space. His undergraduate practice produced a large body of work with the intention of depicting new-age reactions to various environments. Cobb, also an accomplished muralist is informed greatly by the surrounding environment and utilizes a mix of these two in his practice. Within Cobb’s work, there is an adherence to painterly motifs, while oen sculptural attempts to ‘build’ new space challenge each work. The three-dimensional forms and the two-dimensional images allow a field of play for the painter to better understand the value of modern figuration. Cobb’s large-scale public work can be found on walls around the Great Lakes.
