by Karen Woodbury Gallery Location: Shepparton Art Museum
Artist(s): Sam JINKS
Date: 3 May - 1 Jul 2012
This is the first survey exhibition of one of Australia's most talented young artists. The survey will fill the entire ground floor of the newly renovated and expanded Shepparton Art Museum, in Shepparton, regional Victoria. It will showcase a selection of artworks that fit within an aesthetic of 'real sculpture': silicone-based objects that immaculately replicate human form and features. The exhibtion will bring together older sculptures that trace the development of Jinks' artistic practice over the past five years, along with a number of new sculptures to be exhibited for the first time.
