ABOUT
Taylor’s work is shaped by a deep fascination with the human condition and form. Pulled between interests in cognitive science, anthropology, critical theory, and art- her body of work encompasses this constellation of disciplines.
At age ten, when her mother suffered a postpartum stroke that warped her perception of time and self, Taylor began investigating the intersection between body and personhood; creating art that dealt with themes of fractured memory, trauma, and decay.
Taylor’s paintings are characterized by soft, atmospheric textures and a restrained, muted palette that reflects upon 19th century classical traditions. Figures often appear partially obscured-emerging from or receding into hazy backgrounds that evoke the blurred edges of memory surrounding intimate moments.
