Choice New Artist: EV Day
We've recently been taken by EV Day, a New York- based artist who currently has a show at Otero Plassart in West Hollywood. She's been creating beautiful work for more then a decade, her mummified Barbie dolls graced the cover of Art News in 2001. Her work explores themes of feminism and sexuality. What caught my eye was this image from her current show in LA-
The piece, titled Saarinen's Mother 2, 2007, is made with silk crotchless panties, resin, blown glass, monofilament, plexiglass case and steel hardware. This is not her first work using woman's clothing as a medium. In fact, she is probably known most for her work at the NYC Opera with this installation at the Koch Theater-
Her work has been all over New York and traveled to Art Basel with Deitch Projects (who represents her in New York), so it's a surprise this is the first time we are hearing about her. Her current show in Los Angeles is open through January 23rd.
