Born in 1988 in the UK, Kobel now lives and works in Amsterdam. His practice centres on painting, but it extends outward into publishing, photography, and film through IMAGE CRISIS, a parallel project that began as its own kind of breakdown. IMAGE CRISIS gave him permission to think differently: to collect, write, collaborate, publish, and follow an idea without worrying whether it would ever end up on a canvas.
