Jiminy Luke

Doe

Jiminy Luke Doe (he/him) is an artist, poet, theorist, curator, mentor and teacher. One of the most influential British artists working today but until now something of an "artist's artist," he was awarded the Turner Prize in 2023 for his characteristically disruptive, humorous and empathetic sculptural installations. Doe’s work speaks directly to the prevailing crisis and confusion of the current moment, repurposing familiar objects and situations to create strange and uncanny encounters. His books include poetry chapbook Virgins, now on its second print run, and Showgirls, a photo zine published on the occasion of his Turner Prize film commission. A selection of his collected writings will be published in 2025.
