Tara Donovan’s newest work, Untitled (Plastic Cups), a large-scale installation resembling a topographical landscape, measures approximately 5’ x 50’ x 60’ and will occupy the center of the gallery.

Known for utilizing common and manufactured materials as components for her installations and sculptures, Donovan has been recognized for her commitment to process. She earned acclaim for her ability to discover how the inherent physical characteristics of an object might allow it to be transformed into art. The artist goes on to explore the multiplication of these interactions, at times utilizing hundreds of thousands or millions of units, to generate powerful perceptual phenomenon and subtle atmospheric effects.
