BIO
Sampson Wilcox is a Boston-based visual artist and designer working across painting, collage, sculpture and book arts. His practice developed through explorations of post-industrial landscapes, influenced by psychogeography and the Situationist movement. Drawing from traditional Chinese and Japanese landscape painting, American graffiti and abstract expressionism, his work emphasizes gesture, repetition, material experimentation and the relationship between physical movement and creative thought.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Wilcox approaches bookmaking as an extension of painting and an exploration of movement, memory and history. His artist books, Mather I & II (2025), reinterpret early American printing through layered imagery, typography and expressive mark-making. Combining traditional Chinese and Japanese artistic influences with contemporary materials and techniques, his accordion books invite exploration through both sequential reading and continuous visual compositions.
