Jak Henson

Currently researching to complete my honours at James Cook University, I am an emerging local artist and publisher of Art Gaze, Townsville’s arts magazine. While my arts practice has grown from drawing and painting to include video and multimedia work, there is a consistent theme of self exploration within my work. Self-imaging, personal identity and consciousness are a few areas of research that have guided the development of my arts practice and I imagine will continue to inspire my work.
