Roy McMakin at Matthew Marks

Roy McMakin’s has a one-person exhibition at Matthew Marks Gallery in New York which features a number of the artist’s sculptures and photographs.

McMakin continues his familiar vernacular of manipulating mundane objects, or pieces of furniture, by tweaking material, scale, proportion and function. The artist has a knack for taking advantage of the mundane in everyday objects; when a furniture archetype gets a McMakin-remix you know it’s going to have a unique personality, with even more quirks.

Roy McMakin: For, at Matthew Marks Gallery.

While I was at the Matthew Marks site, I saw these interesting pieces from the Selected Works section.

Love these patchwork details.
