Rachel Domm investigates the physical boundaries between our bodies and the items we buy, wear, consume and inhabit. She enlivens common or familiar objects by giving them larger-than-life proportions and luminous, vivid colors that add mysterious overtones and animism. Curves, folds, mounds, cavities, and shadows create sculptural presences that invoke analogous, corporeal forms. By lingering on these quiet, grounded moments, Domm’s intimate renderings also communicate a deep need for respite from the dizzying proliferation of products and images constantly vying for our attention.
