Studio Visit: Lavaughan Jenkins | Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston

Lavaughan Jenkins (b. 1976, Boston) is a painter, printmaker, sculptor, and graduate of Massachusetts College of Art and Design. He uses the materiality of paint to build up two- and three-dimensional works that merge figuration with abstraction.

He speaks here about creating "three-dimensional paintings," taking inspiration from Goya, and how he ended up becoming an artist (and not a football player).

Jenkins is one of four artists included in the 2019 James and Audrey Foster Prize exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston.
The exhibition will feature more than 30 of his standing, kneeling, and “duchess” figures—works built of oil paint that engage with contemporary fashion as well as racial and sexual identities.
