#ArtistiInResidenza2026 @james3vans

James Evans è un artista e scrittore originario di New York, attualmente residente a Londra, dove sta completando il suo MFA presso Goldsmiths. È cresciuto in Colorado e ha studiato scrittura creativa presso la University of Colorado at Boulder, prima di trasferirsi a New York. Ha esposto in mostre personali e collettive a livello internazionale.

Durante la residenza artistica a Bienno, Evans alterna la scrittura alla pittura: sta lavorando a un progetto di narrativa di più ampio respiro e, parallelamente, prosegue una serie di dipinti su rete metallica. Entrambe le pratiche esplorano territori concettuali affini e si alimentano reciprocamente. Evans lavora sia nell’ambito della figurazione sia in quello dell’astrazione, utilizzando la rete come elemento intermedio, un materiale definito dal proprio spazio negativo. I supporti che realizza per queste superfici a rete e il modo in cui interagiscono con l’ambiente diventano importanti quanto le superfici pittoriche stesse.

James Evans is an artist and writer from New York, currently living in London as he completes his MFA at Goldsmiths. James grew up in Colorado and studied creative writing at the University of Colorado at Boulder before relocating to New York. He has shown in solo and group shows internationally.

His time in Bienno is split between writing and painting, as he is both working on a longer form fiction project and continuing a series of paintings on mesh. Both practices explore similar conceptual terrain and continually inform one another. Evans works in both figuration and abstraction, with the mesh functioning as an intermediary, a material defined by its own negative space. The supports he builds for these screens and the ways in which they interact with the room become just as critical as his painted surfaces.
