Nathan Mabry

location: Los Angeles, California
year born: 1978
gender: male
nationality: American
home town: Durango, Colorado

Working primarily in sculpture and work on paper, Nathan Mabry was trained as a ceramicist and his monumental-scale sculptures are cast from clay models and found objects. Mabry’s works-on-paper assemble imagery across historical time, “crashing” multiple aesthetics and cultural motifs together, to make a blended trans-cultural aesthetic, infused with American hybridity. There’s a dose of the uncanny in his work; the creepy ability for certain figures or faces to create a feeling of embodied presence.
