Bob Bicknell-Knight
“I try to create work that has multiple layers of understanding. Work that, in a way, rewards those that choose to spend more time with it, uncovering certain conceptual elements and symbolic choices.”- Bob Bicknell-Knight for Coeval magazine
Bob Bicknell-Knight is an artist, curator and writer, working in several mediums including installation, sculpture, video, and digital media.
