BIOGRAPHY
Justin Hibbs (b. 1971, Poole, UK) studied at Central St.
Martins, London (1991-94) and currently lives and works in London.
He has exhibited his work both nationally and internationally, and
has also curated a series of artist-led exhibitions. His work was
selected for the Jerwood Drawing Prize 2010. Solo shows include
PARA/SITE (2013) and Secondary Modern (2010) at Christinger De Mayo
gallery, Zurich, Switzerland; Altneuland (2007), Lucy Mackintosh
Gallery, Lausanne, Switzerland; Metroparadisiac (2006) and I'll
Wait for you (2005) at the One in the Other Gallery, London. Recent
group exhibitions include Pencil/Line/Eraser (2014), Carroll /
Fletcher, London; Superstructures (2013), Arronitz Arte, Mexico
City; Oh My Complex, Kunstverien Stuttgart, Germany; Temples To The
Domestic, Clifford Chance, London; Lost Properties, Coleman
Projects, London; Polemically Small, Torrence Art Museum,
California (all 2012); and Dawnbreakers (2010), Hansard Gallery,
Southampton.
Justin Hibbs’s practice picks apart the mechanics of spatial
perception and representation, drawing upon social, political and
aesthetic agendas encoded within architectural structures. Much of
his work is a renegotiation of the visual language and ideological
legacies of modernism, probing real and idealized notions of space.
This is enacted through a uniquely multi-disciplinary approach that
incorporates painting, drawing, sculpture and architectural
interventions.
