Kiki Smith @ Timothy Taylor Gallery

Kiki Smith’s practice addresses the physical, philosophical, social and spiritual aspects of human nature. Through everyday materials such as glass, ceramic, fabric and paper, Smith’s work examines the dichotomy between the psychological and physiological power of the body. Smith’s objects and drawings based on organs, cellular forms, and the human nervous system demonstrate her deep understanding of the body’s intimate functions and how she balances the global with the personal, exploring their symbiotic roles as object and subject.
