Lot Report

Provenance:

Courtesy of the artist

Note:

Jimmy Limit is a photo-based artist working in sculpture, ceramics, video, installation, and books. Although varied in form, their practice is characterized throughout by explorations of the relationship between image and object. Borrowing the aesthetics of advertising and using historical still-life references allows for a questioning of how desire and value are created for goods and objects. These works, while bright and poppy, imagine a future archaeology where the detritus of our current moment is uncovered and deciphered—arranged, stacked and made sense of.

He has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions throughout Canada and internationally, including Albright Knox Art Gallery (Buffalo); Temnikova & Kasela (Estonia); and Printed Matter (New York). His work has been featured on the covers of C Magazine and cura. He was born in Toronto and currently lives and works in Niagara with his partner and three children.
