James Hancock by Lost At E Minor
We're loving the work of Sydney-based artist James Hancock who has done the CD artwork for local singer/songwriter Josh Pyke among a handful of other equally creative projects.
He works across "all types of media in both art and design practices, drawing together heterogeneous elements taken from found objects, hand-generated content in drawing, printmaking, painting, photographic experiments, and other playful sources." He says that his art is "not bound by medium, but by process and experimentation." A collection of his works has been published in SPACE3: A Visual History.
