A California native, Pae White is a multimedia artist known for reinterpreting familiar encounters and ordinary items—like animals, books, advertisements, shopping bags, and plants—and revealing what she calls the “artfulness” of the natural and the everyday. She employs ornate craftsmanship along with inventive materials to create objects and installations that transcend traditional boundaries between art and design. Nature is a recurring theme in her work, as is the transformation of space to engage an audience.
White has exhibited extensively in museums and galleries nationally and internationally and in 2014 had solo shows in 2014 at Kaufmann Repetto Gallery, Milan, Italy; neugerriemschneider, Berlin, Germany and greengrassi, London, England. Articles on her work have been published in numerous publications including Frieze, Tema Celeste, Contemporary, Art Monthly, and Artforum. She is the recipient of multiple awards, grants and fellowships and has completed many public commissions nationally and internationally. In addition, White has designed publications and advertisements for a number of museums, galleries, and magazines. Link: http://www.1301pe.com/artists/images.asp?aid=2
