About the Artist

"Libby Black is a Bay Area artist. Through painting, drawing and sculptural installation, Blacks work explores the course of her personal history and broader cultural contexts, examining the intersection of feminism, LGBTQ+ identity, politics, consumerism, notions of value, and desire. Black's sculptural representations are life sized re-creations of objects which she makes from paper, hot glue, and acrylic paint. In some exhibitions she arranges her sculptures of domestic objects, books, magazines, handbags, and shoes into still life arrangements, creating installations blending the real and the imaginary. Her two-dimensional paintings and drawings are based on imagery gathered from various sources such as fashion magazines, newspapers, and books." -Wikipedia
