The story behind this work
During the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown of 2020, Jimmy started producing his first astronaut pieces. These were produced in a far more realistic style, and most were quite conceptual, combining the astronaut with elements of nature like animals. He suspect that isolation and the vulnerable state that the world found itself in influenced the creation of these works on a subconscious level.
In 2022, he started sculpting and produced his first bronze sculpture based on one of his astronaut paintings. Working in three dimensions is challenging but also exciting, providing him with a totally different perspective from the two-dimensional paintings he produces.
