ABOUT THE ARTIST
Diamond Stingily’s spare, emotive vignettes hinge on the commemorative power of objects. A visual artist and writer whose practice spans sculpture, video, and installation as well as text, Stingily is drawn to readymade materials as a spur to both introspection and collective experience. The items she favors carry distinct class markers and a firm sense of place, often rooted in local architectures that delimit spaces of safety as well as exclusion. Attuned to the texture of personal memory (and the politics that underlie it), her formal restraint changes the tenor of what is otherwise familiar or benign, recasting her selected objects into works of art both consequential and evocative.
Diamond Stingily (b. 1990) is an artist from Chicago, Illinois living in Brooklyn, NY. Her work is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York; The Whitney Museum, New York; The Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami; The National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne; and the Museum Ludwig, Cologne, among others. She is represented by the galleries: Galerie Isabella Bortolozzi, Berlin; Cabinet, London and Greene Naftali, New York.
