Nick Gentry Interview Opera Gallery Paris November 2019
 
His portraits are at once archaeological and haunting...a social art project that turns form and function inside out
— Sydney Edelist, Huff Post Arts

Born 29 May 1980, Nicholas James Gentry is a British portrait artist from London.

Much of his artistic output has been generated with the use of contributed artefacts and materials. He states that through this process "contributor, artist and viewer come closer together". His art is influenced by the development of consumerism, technology, identity and cyberculture in society, with a distinctive focus on obsolete media.

Biography and more videos

In a world where dematerialisation takes precedence but which stores and records everything, his portraits are truly meaningful.
— Fleur Baudon, Arts in the City
