Jason Anthony Simpson

Jason takes a minimalist and conceptual approach in his practice at the same time as having roots in traditional medias and methods. His work is process driven through the use of materials and a response to their environment in drawing, painting, screen printing, sculpture and installation. 

He is currently developing a body of work in Athens, Greece, exploring these processes, through intervention, performative aspects of chance and the effects of environment and time.

He is a founder member and co-director of neo:artists, an artist led studios in the UK, consisting of printmaking, photography and sculpture facilities and exhibition and curating opportunities that support the development of artists and writers, and a co-organiser of the neo:artprize, neo:printprize and neo:residency programme.

He is also founder of www.ArtistOpenCalls.Art, a platform supporting artists to find the best opportunities and Arte Kunst Art GR based in Athens, Greece
