Berlin-based artist, Simon Evans, has his first New York solo exhibition, Island Time, at James Cohan Gallery, February 20 – March 21, 2009. Previously a pro-skateboarder and writer, Evans broke into the art scene in 2003.

His drawings and collages are made from mundane materials such as found paper, scotch tape, pencil shavings and white out. Ironic, yet earnest, his drawings take the form of maps, charts, diary entries and cosmologies.
