Framed Neutral-Toned Ceramic 'Excavation' by Taylor Kibby
About the Item
This wall sculpture balances the strength and delicacy of its materiality through the texture of the broken and whole ceramic links. These works are assembled from the collected ruins of previous work--they hold the history of the artists making process and reveal secret moments of material exploration. Each corner of the work is completely unique. As the artist gathers the ruins into a new whole she uses the action to find a space of meditation and deep contemplation of the space she and the work are both negotiating. The artist and work of art move in a dance of making that continues through installation. A large draw of Kibby's practice is the focus on tactile works of art that invite the viewer to join in exploration and discovery of something that is seemingly simple.

Taylor Kibby
Taylor Kibby lives and works in Los Angeles,CA. Coming from a culinary background, Taylor Kibby uses the knowledge and discipline of working with her hands as the foundation of her practice. Aligning with ideas centered on the blurring of lines between craft and fine art, Taylor Kibby makes work centered on experience and awareness. Through rigorous application of technique and the subsequent surrender to an unravelling of structure, she seeks to explore ideas of narrative in connection with the way objects share space and embody identity. The context of her work is deeply influenced by tactile making, thinking, and learning. In 2018 she received her Master of Fine Art in Applied Craft and Design from a joint program between Pacific Northwest College of Art and Oregon College of Art and Craft in Portland, OR. Deeply influenced by the sun drenched vistas of her Southern California childhood, Taylor's work is a blend of high style, the sensual, and the slightly strange. Inspired by traditional chainmail construction and tapestry, Kibby works by creating a flexible system and then subjecting the sculpture to both predictable and unpredictable change. This experimentation creates unique movement and one-of-a kind objects.

- Photograph Self-Portrait by Sam Taylor-WoodLocated in Atlanta, GAA framed C-print photography by British artist Sam Taylor-Wood (1967-). Entitled "Self-Portrait in a Single-Breasted Suit with Hare", the print was made in 2001 and its unique in this size at 9" h x 6" w. Presented in a wood frame. Provenance: Matthew Marks Gallery, NYC (label verso). Artist Biography (courtesy of Guggenheim Musuem Collection) Sam Taylor-Wood B. 1967, LONDON Sam Taylor-Wood was born in London in 1967. At the age of sixteen, she enrolled in an art school in Hastings, later moving back to London to attend Goldsmiths College. After graduating in 1990, she worked as a bartender and as a dresser at the Royal Opera House; the latter experience would influence her work’s unabashed theatricality. Originally a sculptor, she began working in photography, film, and video in the early 1990s. Her first film, 16mm (1993), consists of an isolated female figure gyrating to a steady beat. She explored similar intersections between video, dance, theater, music, film, and video in subsequent works, including Killing Time (1994), in which seemingly bored actors wait their turn to lip-synch the lines of different characters from Richard Strauss’s Electra. Her photographic work also finds points of intersection with other mediums. The title of Five Revolutionary Seconds (1995–98), for example, refers to her creation of a panoramic image by rotating her camera around a room over that period of time; the resulting image has a narrative quality despite being a static image. In recent years, Taylor-Wood has engaged ideas of celebrity culture in her work. Third Party (1999–2000), a seven-screen video installation at the Hayward Gallery in London, featured pop singer Marianne Faithful and actor Ray Winstone in different one- and two-person scenes of flirtation and ennui, creating a party-like environment in the gallery where the viewer is privy to these personal exchanges. Equal parts pathos and humor, the two-minute film Pietà (2001), in which the artist attempts to suspend the Hollywood actor and hard-living icon Robert Downey, Jr. in her arms, also evokes the well-known art historical subject. Her video David (2004) evokes similar connotations and intimately unveils the much-photographed dynamic soccer icon David Beckham in deep sleep. Time and speed are often centerpieces of her videos, whether the rapid acceleration of a bowl of fruit’s decay process in Still Life (2001) or the illusion of frozen time in The Last Century (2006), for which the actors are in fact filmed in real time but remain impossibly still. Taylor-Wood’s first narrative film, Love You More (2008), borrows its title from a song by the 70s punk band Buzzcocks and chronicles the story of two teenagers who hear the recently released song together in a record store. Since her first show, Killing Time at the Showroom in London in 1994, Taylor-Wood has had solo exhibitions at White Cube in London (1995, 2001, 2004, and 2008), Kunsthalle Zürich (1997), Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C. (1999), Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid (2000), Centre National de la Photographie in Paris (2001), Musée d’Art Contemporain de Montréal (2002), Russian Museum in St. Petersburg (2004), Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney (2006), Museum of Contemporary Art in Cleveland (2007), and Museum of Contemporary Art in Houston...Category
