Ken Womack is a Houston-born, Dallas-based sculptor and the son of a bull rider and a ballerina whose large-scale mixed-media works reconstruct the objects of American pop culture at a scale equal to the space they occupy in our lives. Working in plywood, cardboard, neon, LED, and mixed media — including recycled and repurposed materials — he builds Pop-Tarts, Lone Star cans, mixtapes, boomboxes, cigars, and t-bone steaks into oversized monuments, adding lights, motion, and reflective surfaces because that's how these objects actually live in the world.
Womack received his BFA from the University of Texas at Austin in 1986 and spent more than thirty years founding and leading Dallas advertising agencies, including MindHandle and Hack. His sculptures are held in private collections alongside works by Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons.
Ken has exhibited at the Hamptons Art Fair, Spectrum Art Fair during Miami Art Week, ABV Gallery in Atlanta, and Patrick Jones Gallery in Dallas, among others. He served as the inaugural Artist in Residence at Scout Design Studio in Dallas in 2024, and has received sculpture commissions from Whataburger and City Electric / Labora. He serves on the Board of Trustees of The Winston School and advises Clay's Color Crew, a nonprofit serving neurodiverse youth. GIANT, his first solo museum exhibition, is currently running at the Museum of the Southwest in Midland, Texas, and runs through September 13, 2026.
Collectors include: The Bass Family of Ft. Worth, The Dedman Family of Dallas, Michael Ohoven and Joyce Giraud, Josh Fox, Park House Dallas, Desiree Perez, Brandie Gehan, Michael Norsworthy, City Electric Supply, Steve and Alicia Schortgen, Georgina Hartland and The Whataburger Museum of Art.
