Description
Kiki Smith's oeuvre resembles a voyage, a quest in search of a union between the body and all other living beings and the cosmos. From microscopic elements to the organs of the body, from the organs to the body in its entirety, then from the body to cosmic systems, the artist explores the relationship between different species and scales, seeking out the harmony that unites us with nature and the universe.
Text in English and French.
Published to accompany an exhibition at 11 Conti - Monnaie de Paris, 18 October 2019 - 2 February 2020.
Reviews
Thankfully, there's 'Kiki Smith' [..] Through its color illustrations, it highlights her long-running penchant for female figures, witches, and animal iconography. Best of all, each work is paired with a short statement by the artist.--Lauren O'Neill-Butler "Bookforum"
