Ivy Naté
Small Cement Totem Sculpture: 'The Tribe #9'

2020

About the Item

‘The tribe serves as a sacred narrative of a time passed that I have chosen to birth anew. . Each one of my pieces carries the love of thousands, those who came before us and those who will come after.’ –Ivy Naté Ivy Naté uses universally recognizable objects in non-traditional ways. She creates both large-scale installations and smaller works. Yet, each express Ivy’s captivation with raw human emotion and how familiar childhood objects evoke a myriad of reactions. Encountering the stuffed animals in the studio is always a process of re-discovery—Ivy never knows what stories and histories they hold, and where her inspiration and connection with these objects will take her. Naté’s muse is her younger self her art is also a practice of healing old wounds.

  • Animal Head, Wall Sculpture: 'Fairburn Agate Pantherinae'
    By Gin Stone
    Located in New York, NY
    Hand-dyed ghost gear netting*, muslin, adhesive, foam, paint, pins, reclaimed copper flashing Recovered Ghost Gear Data: Retrieval Coordinates: 42° 10ʹN 69°52ʹW Retrieval Vessel: F/V Donna Marie (Groundfish Trawler/Scallop Dragger out of Provincetown) Water Depth: approx. 100 fathoms/183 meters/600 feet Source: pre-Magnuson-Stevens Act* foreign, most likely Russian, fishing net 'I am a multidisciplinary artist with a focus on ecofeminism using fiber and mixed media constructions. My materials include hand-dyed commercially fished line and ghost gear, recycled and antique textiles, fabric printed with cyanotype emulsions and found objects. I change the existing surface of recognizable animals by creating a veneer of unexpected color and imagery. This forces the viewer to consider the shape more carefully by visually exploring its new topography. The creation process can be likened to painting with fiber (that has been tinted with hand-mixed dyes) on a three-dimensional canvas. Intense work is spent creating the eyes and ears to convey the emotion of each animal. I look to the work of Joan Mitchell and The Quilters of Gee’s Bend...
