Jochem Hendricks (born c. 1959) is a contemporary artist from Frankfurt, Germany.[1] One of his works which asked "far-reaching questions about the value and meaning of labour" involved paying illegal immigrants to count millions of sand grains over a period of over eight years.[2]
His earlier work included "eye drawings" whereby his pupils were tracked by a head-mounted scanner; the results were printed out and exhibited at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.[3] His first solo exhibition in London was held at the Haunch of Venison in August 2007.[1] In 2013, The New Art Gallery Walsall exhibited a collection of his installations, sculpture, film and paintings.[4]
