Taylor O. Thomas Untitled, 2020 Oil and Pastel on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Taylor O. Thomas is an American painter who uses gestural painting as a means of making manifest human tendencies, ways of seeing, and the interconnection between the body and the mind. Her paintings have been exhibited in galleries and private collections across the United States and in Italy, Spain, Singapore, and China. In 2012, Thomas graduated magna cum laude from Davidson College with a BA in Studio Art. She was then awarded a Graduate Fellowship by the University of South Florida and earned her MFA in 2019. Thomas is the recipient of an inaugural Innovate Artist Grant, a Peripheral Vision Publication Fellowship, a two-time role as Publication Juror for Friend of the Artist, a Regional Artist Project Grant by the Arts and Science Council of Charlotte, NC, and residency scholarships to attend Vermont Studio Center (Johnson, Vermont) and Benaco Arte (Sirmione, Italy). Other residencies include MassArt's Art New England and Deli Grocery New York. Thomas currently lives and works in Tampa, Florida. Thomas is represented by Deli Grocery New York (Brooklyn, NY) and Emily Friedman Fine Art (Los Angeles, CA) . A painting may begin with a gesture I have borrowed from a dilapidated wall, cracking tile,scurrying commuter, or draping telephone wire. It continues based on the objects that jolt myattention within my studio walls. I mine for forms that approach "rightness" and "wrongness"simultaneously, gathering references to expand upon and manipulate. Gestural painting is mymeans of creating a tactile language, as I question what it means to live fully into the body.I visualize my environment with a collage mentality- jumping from shape-to-shape and texture-to-texture- cultivating a way of seeing that directs my intuitive way of making. This interactiveresearch that occurs outside of the studio serves as the preface for my work within it. Myphysical marks are embodiments of my being and moving through the world. Materialexperimentation is also a key factor in creative decision-making. Playing with paint's plasticityand ambiguous spaces provides for more interesting routes to each unexpected end. I teeter-totterbetween the compositional "bones" I establish for a painting and the spontaneous actions thatdisrupt those plans. Be it the imprint of an old tool, or the smudgy scrawls made by my faultybrush, I choose to embed such moments in the work. By embracing studio residue andresponding to past and present images at once, I invite new layers of meaning, chance, andauthorship into my paintings.While my practice remains rooted in my attempt to unify self-expression with ongoingdiscovery, the optical and emotive qualities of each surface stretch beyond my singularperspective. The images are altogether thick and flat, direct and obscure, sensitive and markedlydeliberate. Through them, I question: Where do our collective ideas of mind-body connectednessstand today? What is the value of preserving the physical in a digital age? And how mightgestural abstraction be utilized as a mode of contemporary communication?
