Pae White (b. 1963) is an American visual artist. She currently lives and works in Los Angeles, California.[1]
Early life and education
[edit]White was born in 1963 in Pasadena, California.[1] She attained a Bachelor of Arts degree from Scripps College in 1985.[1] In 1990 she studied at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture.[1] In 1991 she attained a Masters of Fine Art from the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.[1]
Work
[edit]White is a multi-media artist who frequently creates large-scale installations in a variety of media, from tapestry to ceramics to tinfoil.[2] Her work is said to "merge art, design, craft, and architecture."[3]
Notable for her unusual use of space, White's work has been featured in a range of non-exhibition spaces including the bookshop window at Galerie Buchholz and a children's learning area at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. [4]
Her personal collection of Vera Neumann scarves will form an installation as part of the Barbican Centre's Magnificent Obsessions : The Artist as Collector exhibition in 2015. [5]
Of the concept behind her work, White has said:
"For the last several years, my practice has focused on an exploration of the neglected, the forgotten, the spaces between things, even the things between things. I am equally drawn to the temporary, the fleeting, to the ephemera of everyday life. My work has attempted to subvert the viewer's expected relationship to an everyday object, nudging them off balance, encouraging a deeper look.” [4]
