Jim Jack

For Jim Jack each work starts with the statement “What can I do with this? How can I change it? What happens if i'lI do this? Jim combines the attention to detail and skills of a craftsman with the inquiring mind and vision of an Artist.

The sculptor Jim Jack is originally from the fisher towns of the Moray Firth (Scotland). Echoes of the fishing boats and the notions of construction and repair are legible in his work. His many visits to Southern Africa have too influenced his works, enhancing his vocabulary of form and shape. His work centres process, influencing the final outcome and solution.

Jim Jack studied at Lincoln College of Art, Walthamstow Art School, and the Workingmen’s College where he studied Etching. For Jim “drawing has always been a fundamental part of the creative process, a nursery of ideas that are informed by past and future work.”

Jim lives and works in East London and has undertaken commissions in Miami, USA, Dubai, UAE, Mauritius, and Switzerland.
