Artist Bio:

Tim Kent (United States, b. 1991) received a BFA in Painting from the Savannah College of Art and Design, Savannah, GA, in 2014. Kent’s work has been featured in New American Paintings, at Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art and The Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia. His first solo exhibition was in Manhattan, New York, at Classic Car Club Manhattan, 2013. Kent most recently exhibited in solo show, Dear Artist, at a pop up gallery he created in Lenox Square. He has also exhibited works in several solo and group exhibitions throughout the Southeast. In 2017, Kent completed an 8-week Alumni Atelier Artist Residency, in which he created a 13-foot shaped canvas installation for Savannah College of Art and Design. This residency matured his process by remodeling of the scope of his work in relation to street art and large scale applications. Currently, Kent is creating new work in his Atlanta based studio and woodshop.
