Dawn Beasley

Dawn Beasley is an artist whose creative practice examines the relationships between humans and the natural world we occupy. Using botanical forms as a point of reference, Beasley creates porcelain sculptures that range from exact renderings of specific species to entirely otherworldly creations. These become part of large installations that immerse the viewer in a world of uncharted delicacy; their dramatic scale mirrors the magnitude of the subject matter they bring into focus. As the limits of what our natural world can sustain continue to be pushed, Beasley speaks of growth, resilience, and survival.
