Carolyn Clayton
MFA Fellowship 2016
Carolyn Clayton (The University of Michigan) is a recipient of the 2016 Master of Fine Arts Fellowship in Painting & Sculpture.
Clayton has long been interested in the traces that human beings leave on material things: the observable scratches, smudges and smells that hint at past occurrences, and broader human contact. This positioned her to ask whether object history is retained in fragments of everyday things, which she explores by collecting, photographing, pulverizing and reassembling still lifes of second-hand objects.
