Patricia Piccinini, "Kindred," 2018, detail view; silicone, fiberglass, hair, 40 1/2 x 37 3/8 x 50 3/8 inches
"Most people look at my pieces and find them repulsive," says Patricia Piccinini of her sculptures, "but all my work is about love."
Piccinini has spent years working across many media, but it's her sculptures that have resonated the most – at once hyper-real and other-worldly, they throw up questions and provoke mixed emotions, with their hair and crevices and skin folds that may or may not be orifices.
