James Ford is based in London
James R Ford is a British artist whose practice explores notions of repetition, pathos and idiocy; delving into the activities and influences of his childhood. His work consists of process based projects and investigations: ranging from inventing a new home based sport, to covering a Ford Capri in over 4,000 toy cars, to spending countless hours scribbling loops.
