- Lot Description
Lot #40: Mariah Tate Klemens
Fake (Christopher) Wool, 2020
Fake wool (acrylic yarn)
36 x 36 x 1 ½ in.
$1,250
Mariah Tate Klemens's Fake (Christopher) Wool is a timely work, created early on in the Covid-19 pandemic. Broken text on the latch-hook wall piece reads "THE END OF THE DREAM"-along with the title, a reference to the American painter Christopher Wool's text images with a material pun. The meaning of the work has more serious implications: the nature of the dream is not explained and viewers must decide for themselves what, precisely, especially in today's cultural, economic, and political landscape has come to an end.
Born and raised in Seattle, Klemens received her BFA in Mixed Media Sculpture from Western Washington University in 2013 and her MFA from the University of Wisconsin in 2019. She has exhibited in Bellingham and Seattle, and in Portland, Madison, and Milwaukee. She is currently a faculty member at Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design.
