Lincoln Hancock (b. 1976) is an artist and designer based in Raleigh, NC. Through painting, installation, public and community-oriented projects, his work leverages strategies and approaches from art and design to explore notions of site and site-specificity that bridge into the historical, social, and cultural realms. His solo and collaborative projects have been seen in traditional and nontraditional venues including the NC Museum of Art, the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University, and CAM Raleigh. Hancock sits on the City of Raleigh’s Public Art and Design Board. He has a background in Philosophy and a masters degree in Graphic Design.
