- Tara Donovan, Untitled (Mylar), Courtesy PaceWildenstein, New York, © Tara Donovan
Bringing new meaning to the term "pack rat," sculptor Tara Donovan accumulates everyday objects such as Styrofoam cups and drinking straws and uses the material goods to create large-scale installations that call to mind everything from topographical landscapes to cumulus clouds to stalagmites. A giant cube of toothpicks resembles a bale of hay; thousands of short wire pieces form an enormous pond ripple. Her new work — created specifically for her exhibit at the Met — spans the entire gallery space, encompassing the viewer in an intricate web of metal loops made from Mylar tape.
