Jonny Farrow (born 1969, Kentucky, USA) works across disciplines: primarily in sculpture, printmaking, painting, sound, and transmission art, researching the liminal, the uncanny, the electromagnetic, and the dubious origins of popular mythologies. Coming out of New York City's lower east side D-I-Y music scene of the 90s taught Farrow to freely experiment in his work and to see his art practice as being both intuitively and narratively driven. This, he believes, is the influence of songwriting on his practice as he is just as likely to start with a material (a riff) as a narrative (lyrical) or conceptual idea. Recently he has been focusing on kinetic sculpture made from cast bronze, making objects that if not in motion, somehow suggest it. This motion always points to the body, sound, presence or absence, and intent.
