For her solo exhibition with Essex Flowers, Doreen Garner synthesizes abstract and figurative form in sculptural works which examine the paradox of vanity.
About
Garner has named incision as her guiding sculptural gesture, and thus she's cleaved, refashioned, and re-fastened female body parts, exploiting them to the limits of their material aesthetic potential. Such literal objectification threads beauty, value, and utility, and each work presents a different angle of the purgatory they combine to create.
