Born in 1980, Gentry is a British Graduate of Central St Martins in London. He has exhibited in galleries, museums and public settings in the UK, USA and Europe. The bold conceptual roots of this work explore collective identity, consumer waste, pop culture and found art.
A timeless exchange between humans and animals, flows through the ages in ancient body art. In a tame world we must never forget that we all have wild roots.
