Zin Taylor (Calgary, Canada, 1978) lives and works in Turin, Italy. Taylor’s work employs familiar visual cues to probe the malleable and mysterious divisions between concept and material. His process looks at the construction and inscription of form through specific cultural histories, asking how objects might translate thought, and how abstract ideas can find tangible articulation by engaging in a dialogue where thoughts about a subject are translated into forms about a subject.
