Kevin Todora (b. 1977; Beaumont, TX) received a BA in 2005 from The University of Texas at Dallas, and an MFA in 2009 from Southern Methodist University. Todora utilizes the photograph as the foundation for his sculptural work. His process consists of cutting, drilling and painting onto appropriated material to free the image from its original obligation. Ultimately, the deconstructed works rebel against what the artist considers intrusive imagery in print media.
Todora has shown his work in solo and group exhibitions including at Oliver Francis Gallery, Dallas, TX; The University of Texas at Dallas; FotoFest 2017, Houston TX; The Power Station Dallas, TX; Dallas Contemporary; and the SMU Pollock Gallery, Dallas, TX. In 2011, Todora was a recipient of the Dozier Travel Grant from the Dallas Museum of Art.
Kevin Todora currently lives and works in Dallas, TX.
