MADELINE STILLWELL

MADELINE STILLWELL                                                                                   Madeline Stillwell was based in New York (2000-2006), Detroit (2006-2008), and currently lives & works in Berlin (2008-present).  Growing up, she moved cities 11 times before the age of 14, and has continued to move 8 times as an adult.  Perhaps her artistic practice has something to do with this: the nature of ‘moving through’ something--a search for grounding amidst the nature of instability.

Her work has been exhibited  exhibited in New York, Berlin, Seoul, Rennes France, Basel Swizerland, Miami, Philadelphia, & Detroit.

"I see Art as a moment of clarity amidst the mess of structures we attempt to arrange and re-arrange around ourselves.  Life throws us a big pile of leftovers, and we are challenged to make something out of it.  I aim to present a collective material rupture alongside an internalization of the transformative self."    -Madeline Stillwell, 2012
