TAYLOR KIBBY (b. 1992, California)
Taylor Kibby lives and works in Los Angeles, California. She was educated at Bard College, Massachusetts before graduating with an MFA in Applied Craft and Design from Pacific Northwest College of Art and Oregon College of Art and Craft. Kibby is known for her intricate, flowing stoneware sculptures, which are crafted of interlocking links possessing a remarkable lightness and delicacy, making them resemble woven chains. As seen in the work of Ruth Asawa or Eva Hesse, Kibby’s intricate, handmade, abstract pieces challenge traditional notions of sculpture and solidity, requiring intensive discipline and precision to create. Kibby’s interest in chain links is rooted in their potential to reflect the way objects and people occupy space in the world as well as notions of memory, identity and narrative.
Her work has been exhibited at A-B Projects and Emma Scully Gallery in Los Angeles, Maho Kubota Gallery, Tokyo and will be included in the two person exhibition A Relationship of Parts at Timothy Taylor Gallery, NYC in 2021 alongside works by Christy Matson.
