i’m jealous of tara donovan

Whoa.

These stunningly beautiful, insanely meticulous installations are by Brooklyn based artist Tara Donovan. I was thinking of leaving the close-ups out of the post so that I could have an amazing contest with fabulous prizes for the people who correctly guessed what each piece was made from… but the detailed views were just too fantastic, and I had to show them oh, and also, I had no fabulous prizes to give out. Ah, details.  Ok, if I had actually planned an amazing contest, with fabulous prizes, these are the answers I would have been looking for: 1. styrofoam cups 2. buttons 3. paper plates 4. scotch tape

    The first time I saw work by Tara Donovan, it was definitely a “I wish I had thought of that first” moment.

    How about this….I’m jealous of….the jealous curator! What beautiful and inspiring work you have selected. Yet also, intimidating, and jealous-making. Your blog is a wonderful idea, a great way to celebrate fabulous work from the perspective of another artist. Can’t wait to see what else you are jealous of.
