Jonathan Kopinski

Jonathan Kopinski is a Brisbane-based artist with a focus on psycho-scenographic imagery that captures very particular and often peculiar moments of both personal and collective history. 

Each body of work is intentionally produced without a specific underlying narrative or conceptual arc. This allows for unexpected thematic affinities (i.e. places and issues of societal angst, crisis, politics, idealism) to unconsciously emerge between seemingly unrelated and irrational subject matter, blurring any perceived separation between past, present and future.
