About the Item
Physical space, punctuated by interior design and encased by architecture, draws attention to the people and things we surround ourselves with. As living bodies move past each other, negotiations are made. Day in and day out we are reflected in our selections. We may better understand ourselves through these choices and furthermore, we are understood by others through these selections.
Peering through curtained windows, around security bars, and past fence posts, Amy Boone McCreesh’s maximal collage and installation works consider the signifiers of class and beauty from the inside looking out. Through the use of lavish colors and textures, notions of taste-making come into question. Formed subconsciously, often inherited through one’s lineage and reinforced by architecture itself, how people design their homes and what they consider fashionable is informed by upbringing. There is an aspirational quality to McCreesh’s playful works, that spill out of their frames and onto walls with joy and defiance. By harnessing harmoniously clashing overdecoration, McCreesh subversively negates cultural markers of luxury and mass production, training an eye on the psychological and often revealing nesting instinct.
