Jacob Milne was born in 1985 in Christchurch and has since settled in Auckland, New Zealand. Milne completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts at Elam School of Fine Arts, the University of Auckland in 2009. During his study, Milne helped to establish the Treehouse Gallery, running the space with others for two years. He also acted as a gallery guide at Auckland Art Gallery during his degree.
Since graduating, Milne has continued to pursue his art practice in private studio spaces as well as through public programmes. He has worked with Toi Ora Live Arts Trust where he extended his skills in writing, painting, drawing and printmaking. Milne works in multiple mediums, including painting, drawing, sculpture, printmaking and literature. During his collaborations with Auckland Print Studio Milne has produced a series of successful lithographs. His images utilise effective use of line and texture to create fanciful explorations of alternative worlds and utopia. He has recently turned his attention to copper plate etching and is working towards building a body of new work in this medium. | |||
