About the Item
Artist Commentary:
This piece is constructed from my grandmother's dressing table mirror, a found table base, and dismembered segments of a soft sculpture I had previously made and no longer liked. Rememberances of time spent with my mother and grandmother preparing the house for special family dinners, the piece is a memorial to traditional home decor in the 60's and 70's and the desire to have the perfect table setting with precious objects that could never be realized. Striving for beauty, the effort is over-the-top and hearkens back to cheap reproductions of objects from a gilded age.
Keywords: abstract, softsculpture, decorative
Artist Biography:
Bobbi Meier is a Chicago-based visual artist working in various mediums, including; sculpture, collage, drawing, and photography. Her work is realized through provocative use of materials, such as pantyhose, spandex, porcelain, and found home furnishings; embedding themes of emotional history, struggle and loss in its making. Ms. Meier was recently awarded the prestigious John Michael Kohler Arts/Industry Residency, Kohler WI, where she transformed her soft sculptural forms into a new body of work made from industrial porcelain. Her work is in the permanent collections of the Kohler Foundation and The John Michael Kohler Arts Center. She earned her MAAE and MFA in Fiber and Material Studies from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
