The artist and designer is getting ready to exhibit new sculptural works in Paris this October.
From her ceramic “Lady Lamps” to her purely ornamental, bronze-bezeled “Wall Jewelry,”’s practice straddles functional design and abstract sculpture. She deftly references sources as disparate as Victorian lace patterns and suburban kitsch, all while subverting expectations of form, function, and traditionally female craft techniques—and with humor.
“Walking the line between beauty and vulgarity feels so good,” the Maine-born, 30-something artist and designer recently. Her work—which is in the permanent collections of the Dallas Museum of Art, New York’s Museum of Arts and Design, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art—is candy-colored and uncannily playful. It also pointedly critiques the many stereotypes that still govern how women work, look, and live.
Not Stout, though. This spring, she and her husband left Brooklyn to make an early 20th-century church and parsonage in Hudson, New York, their home. She’s turning the church into her studio—a big work in progress, in service of her many works in progress—complete with a bell tower and a graveyard and windows of stained glass. “The space,” she said, “provides a lot of opportunity for world building.
While preparing new works in clay for group shows in Paris and at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts , the artist-designer gave Artnet News a sneak peek inside.
