Murmuration

“I’m interested in connection, which is a provocation of the art world in a way. Critics and writers are not at all interested in beauty. They find it outdated, I find it to be the opposite.”

Murphy's Murmurations series deftly illustrates the metaphorical leap from the everyday object to the visual associations embedded within it.

Seeing Spectral Visions in Fulsome Skirts, Hyperallergic 2016
Murphy's work feels anachronistic, like it's swimming against a contemporary tide that moves toward a shore of disenchantment. Our culture constantly reminds us of the ugly underbelly of things. Murphy lets us instead be bewitched.

Seeing Spectral Visions in Fulsome Skirts, Hyperallergic 2016
Using the dress, a culturally loaded motif, Murphy starts a narrative that touches upon grand themes of nature, technology, and humanity over the past two hundred years. The skirts are clear and shaped like bell jars that encase free standing sculptures.

The exhibition culminates in the final room, which unveils the artist’s latest Murmurations series. Using the dress, a culturally loaded motif, Murphy starts a narrative that touches upon grand themes of nature, technology, and humanity over the past two hundred years.

Kate Murphy
Art Fuse 2016
Murphy’s studio is filled with dress forms, dresses, bell-shaped skirts and women’s bodices made in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In his work, women stand for humanity.
