“Pushing each work to the very brink of collapse before it can be resolved is central to my practice. The dynamic between abandon and restraint drives me — an approach that continually frustrates and excites me.”

Tracy Sweeney

Disrupting Expectation: In Sweeney’s work, construction and collapse redefine the relationship between material, texture and form.

“What Sweeney has vividly evoked is its maker’s desire to create a mark in public, to make something imperfect and thus unique.”
