Jill Downen | Midsection

admin — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 01:07:10 +0000

In Midsection, Jill Downen employs the metaphoric relationship between bodies and buildings in an installation of sculptural forms. The torso, specifically from the bust to the navel, takes on the role of sculpted building blocks situated in relation to the space of the gallery. Jill Downen’s art is a focused investigation of the symbiotic relationship between the human body and architecture expressed in temporal installations, drawings, and models. Her art envisions a place of interdependent relation between the human body and architecture, where the exchanging forces and tensions of construction, deterioration, and restoration emerge as thematic possibilities. Jill Downen is a 2010 John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation fellow.
