Kimbal’s painting practice stems from his background in participatory performance art and  his fascination with maps. He is interested in abstraction as a form of storytelling, and the  act of mark-making as a tool to tune-into and record embodied experiences. The result of  an introspective and cathartic dialogue with the materials, his vibrant paintings capture the  traces of journeys into imaginary worlds. He works with translucent mixtures of oil paint,  varnish and acrylic to create densely layered, sensory-rich and absorbing compositions. 

Kimbal holds a BA in Fine Art from the University of Leeds and the Academy of Fine Art in  Krakow (2008) and an MA in Performance and Theatre from Queen Mary University of  London (2010). His work has been shown at performance events and art galleries in the UK  and abroad.
