Compare Contrast of Yinka Shonibare and Tim Hawkinson





Tim Hawkinson and Yinka Shonibare have a few things in common but are very different types of artists. They both concentrate on the human body. But they use the human body n different ways. Tim Hawkinson is inspired by the ideas of the human body, when Yinka Shonibare uses the human body to make a statement about certain issues, like racial, Hierarchy, nature, culture and really loves to use costumes from the French Revolution. Tim Hawkinson uses photography and tv when Yinka does sculpture. They are two very different but very similar artists and I respect both of them dearly.
