Christine Tarkowski is an artist working in a variety of mediums, formats, and collaborative conditions. Her work ranges in scale from the pedestrian to the monumental. Equally variable is the scope of production, incorporating the making of permanent public structures, propositional drawings, cast glass models, textile yardage, temporary printed ephemera, and musical choirs. Recently Tarkowski’s practice has focused on modes of abstraction; drawing on history, craft tectonics, and archetypes associated with form making, she evolves narrative elements that refer to dissolution of order through the employment of a quasi-alchemical process. Molten Drawings are produced with the use of hot glass interspersed with molten copper, poured by hand over steel armatures, forming minimal, if incomplete, geometries.
