Rec'd on 🎨 what are your favourite pieces of street art/murals?

I love the intricacies of Swoon’s artwork. She started out as primarily a wheat paste artist but her work has grown into more different types of media and even installations over the years. I also really enjoy Neck face’s work!

Louis Nevelson’s sculpture at st. louis Art museum

This sculpture is in SLAM’s permanent collection and they recently put it on display after a long time in storage She’s my favorite artist, and you can look at this piece for an hour and it keeps feeling fresh, like you never get to the bottom of understanding it. I like her work (and this piece in particular) because it’s emotionally rich. To me it embodies paradoxes like being both playful and somber, lively and elegiac, busy but unified, individual but collective, primal but contemporary, geometric and organic, abstract yet figurative, dissonant and harmonious, pattern and noise, cheeky and serious, quiet and commanding. Go spend some time with her.

very difficult to choose

for overall artists, i really enjoy the body of work by photographer renée cox. i love her takes on representation and her unapologetic nature. i wasn’t much of a photography girl before her, but i get it now. i also really enjoy the paintings of oda iselin sønderland and the mood she’s able to capture with them. and i can’t forget the works of aya takano! i love the world she’s crafted and the figures that come out of it. she reminds me that i’m a woman but also still a girl if that makes sense. for favorite contemporary works of art in general, that’s even harder as i have so many! for now, i’ll choose kiki smith’s 1996 piece “constellation” (pictured here). but i could go on forever.
