James Boyd-Brent is an artist/printmaker, and art and design
educator (drawing and graphic design at the University of Minnesota).
James enjoys researching the behavior of water and demonstrating
its charcteristics in his work. He recently co-curated Here
by Design II, an exhibition of contemporary Twin
