Nick Gentry

Nick Gentry integrates obsolete technology into his artwork, primarily floppy disks and film negatives, placing an emphasis on recycling outdated media and reusing objects. While floppy disks are mostly regarded for the information they store, Gentry examines their aesthetics instead. His work reflects on the quick pace of technology and how easily we forget what is deemed obsolete. On exhibition will be Gentry’s portraits of anonymous strangers that examine identity. The portraits incorporate floppy disks sent to him from around the world, with each disk containing an individual’s anonymous personal files.

Gentry’s solo and group exhibitions include Robert Fontaine Gallery, Miami, FL, Studio55 Gallery, London, C24 Gallery, New York and Whisper Gallery, London, England.
