birmingirl

Darcy (birmingirl) is a multidisciplinary artist who explores ideas of home and family through personal experiences and memories. Her work is autobiographical, documenting moments in her life or blending many together. She explores her upbringing in contrast to the way she lives now, the ways in which both have influenced who she is and how she creates and exists in her relationships. She uses installation based mediums to replicate or imitate important memories or events, such as parties, outfits, people, houses. In this way, her work is a metaphorical, sculptural scrapbook. Her work comes from a multitude of sources from inspiration – many of which from the realm of media, primarily film and television.Her work and life revolve around means of mental escape, almost exclusively through the media she consumes. In this way, her work both explores the ways in which she escapes and becomes a secondary way of escape through reflective nostalgia and memory.
