Fiona Connor is an Aotearoa born artist currently based in LA. Connor has an expansive sculptural practice in which she produces site specific installations, that really play with the spaces inherent architecture. Developing this conceptually enriched sculptural language that seeks to shift objects, and their environments through this process of reproduction.
Her current show on at Coastal Signs, Blanket Games includes 5 large-scale drawings of segments of hurricane fencing. In which Connor utilises an alternative method of drawing, monoprinting. A method that demands a different kind of connection. Allowing her to not only record the object of the fence itself, but also of her own body's movements during the making of the work. Smudges, and scuffs, made from the weight of her body while tracing the fence intertwining within the woven marks of the lattice fence. Creating a beautiful frottage of the body, and it’s record of interaction.
Alongside her individual practice, Connor is passionate about creating, and being amongst artist run initiatives. So in light of Connor's collaborative projects Maya also spoke to her and Bailey Connelly about their latest artist run collective, Polyhymnia.
