Barely Fair: Lindsy Davis

Lindsy Davis creates sculptural works that investigate the emotional and spatial dynamics embedded within domestic environments. Her practice examines how familiar elements of the home; drapery, upholstery, ornament, and structural framing, carry psychological and cultural weight beyond their functional roles. In her works on paper, Davis extends these investigations through a series of gestalt landscapes that translate spatial tension into flattened, perceptual fields. By exaggerating scale, balance, and structural relationships, Davis transforms everyday domestic references into sculptural situations that oscillate between comfort and containment.

Lindsy Davis (b. 1990, Mahwah, NJ) is an artist living and working in Nashville, TN.
