Jens Kothe (born 1985 in Bochum) is a German artist who lives and works in Germany. In his work Kothe focusses on questions of physicality, intimacy and materiality. His objects, assemblages and installations refer to elements of the everyday life and produce spatial situations and surroundings which create atmospheres of privacy and familiarity. His work also explores the uncanny interplay between bodily presence and absence.
