Trenton Doyle Hancock

(American, born 1974)

Trenton Doyle Hancock is a contemporary African-American mixed-media artist. Using painting, printmaking, video, and sculpture, he melds comic book-style illustrations and mass media, through darkly humorous and frenzied compositions. He is perhaps best known for his fantastical depictions of The Mounds, mythical creatures whose narrative unfolds through Hancock’s imagination. “I employ the systematic grid of narration as a way to keep an impossible amount of visual information in check and under my control,” the artist’s said of his work. Born in 1974 in Oklahoma City, OK, Hancock moved to Paris, TX in his youth, going on to receive his BFA from Texas A&M University-Commerce in 1997. After obtaining an MFA from the Tyler School of Art in 2000, Hancock's work exploded onto the gallery scene, garnering him acclaim such as the Artadia Foundation Award in 2003 and the 2005 Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation Biennial Award. His work has been exhibited globally, in spaces such as the Zacheta National Gallery of Art in Warsaw and the American Folk Art Museum in New York. The artist lives and works in New York, NY.
