“What I’m especially excited to share in my own practice is a process of mutation, translation, and mediation. And so, what we’re really doing is tracing a trajectory of lines on—in this case, paper—but let’s say just a wall. I take those drawings, tear them into 3-D objects, then combine and recombine them into immersive 3-D sculpture.”
Nicole Eisenman: Fantastic Worlds
Yeah, there’s definitely a lot of self-portraiture. Even the work that doesn’t look like self-portraiture is self-portraiture. My father is a psychiatrist, and a part of our dialogue together is analyzing the inner lives of various artists, how their unconscious thoughts show up in their work. Those conversations taught me to look at my work in the same way. It’s similar to analyzing a dream. It’s so interesting to me.
