Ken Womack

Ken Womack is a Houston-born, Dallas-based sculptor and the son of a bull rider and a ballerina whose large-scale mixed-media works reconstruct the objects of American pop culture at a scale equal to the space they occupy in our lives. Working in plywood, cardboard, neon, LED, and mixed media — including recycled and repurposed materials — he builds Pop-Tarts, Lone Star cans, mixtapes, boomboxes, cigars, and t-bone steaks into oversized monuments, adding lights, motion, and reflective surfaces because that's how these objects actually live in the world.

Womack received his BFA from the University of Texas at Austin in 1986 and spent more than thirty years founding and leading Dallas advertising agencies, including MindHandle and Hack. His sculptures are held in private collections alongside works by Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons.
