Monsters (loosely interpreted) figure prominently in Taylor Baldwin’s work. His drawings and sculptures feature such visual stimuli as skulls, fossils, ghost figures and an oversized kachina doll updating his personal software.
A young artist currently working out of Provincetown, Massachussetts, Baldwin sources his material mostly by bartering, stealing, borrowing and salvaging from locales both mysterious (a house destroyed by arson) and humble (dumpsters). The resulting works deal cheerfully with themes of mutation, history, material culture and the ebbs and flows of civilization. These are pieces worth pondering.
