Monica Wyatt

I’m a maker of unconventionally poetic objects, constructing biomorphic assemblages from the overlooked materials of everyday life—zip ties, hairnets, electrical components, wire—and fusing them into forms that challenge the boundaries between the organic and the manufactured. My process is both experimental and intuitive, guided by the inherent qualities of the materials I use. I allow the materials to rest and accumulate a kind of dormant energy, until their formal possibilities reveal themselves – initiating a process of material exploration and transformation that defines my practice.
