​

Born and raised in East Vancouver, 75 year old Jack Procter has been making art for over 50 years. He is

well known for his eye catching public display of art that is continuously rotated 365 days a year at his

centrally located Vancouver home. A self-taught artist, Procter has been developing and honing his art making skills throughout his life. Often unable to afford the luxury of traditional paint and other art making materials, he employs salvaged objects, found materials, and industrial products in his inventive art making.

​

Procter has lived a blue collar life, doing what needs to be done to get by, however his real passion is

creating masterful collages, mobiles, and paintings. Procter reclusively operates at the margins of culture and the Vancouver art scene. His artwork is directly informed by his trade knowledge and life experiences. He resists the capitalist logic of consumer culture and, whatever the materials may be, Procter’s finished work is made with impeccable details and craftsmanship.

​

This exhibition is a curated selection of Procter's finest mobiles, paintings and sculptures.
