Simon Job is a London based artist originally from North Wales. He holds his MA from Chelsea College of Art and his BA from Liverpool John Moores University.
Working with painting, photography and sculpture, Simon subverts aspects of these disciplines by exploring the boundaries of their conventional usage, putting into focus their own function both formalistically and societally.
