Overview

Timothy Taylor is pleased to announce the first solo exhibition in London by the Portland based American artist Jessica Jackson Hutchins. Hutchins’ mixed media sculptures, prints and works on paper explore themes pertaining to motherhood, domesticity, and the precariousness of human relationships. Using papier-mache, furniture, old clothing, and glazed ceramics, Hutchins builds up lumpen organic masses that recall recumbent figures. Her sculptures are almost always anthropomorphic - cups and vases come to signify hands and larger pairs of conjoined handmade vessels stand for embracing human figures.
