Recording of exchange between Henry Hussey & Jim Patrick, 2020.

Jim Patrick

‘Data Kore’ (2020)

Jim Patrick makes handcrafted objects, principally from wood. Alongside more conceptual art projects, he maintains a restoration and craft-based studio practise, as both channels support and inform one another. Using traditional skills which have been practised for hundreds if not thousands of years is important. There is a direct and intuitive relationship with a natural material, and the limitations it offers. To make a beautiful object, one must have a conversation with the material, rather than purely telling it what to do. The organic and sustainable benefits are significant too, as environmental concerns do influence Jim’s practise.
