Trenton Doyle Hancock: Mind of the Mound

January 23, 2020
Trenton Doyle Hancock grew up in Paris, Texas, to a family of evangelical Baptist ministers and missionaries, supplementing his religious upbringing with comic books, horror films and Greek mythology. Ultimately birthing his own creation myth — envisioned through paintings, sculpture, drawings, prints, videos, and installation – this body of work is coalesced at MASS MoCA reaching a critical mass decades in the making.
