TASHI FAY
BIO
Originally from Los Angeles, Tashi Fay is an artist based in Brooklyn, New York. Combining painting, collage and sculpture, Fay constructs scenes meant to plunge the viewer into bizarre and dreamlike narratives. Recent exhibitions include I Think I’m in Trouble, SARA’S, New York (2024), My Other Family, The Horse Hospital, London (2023) and thee belly walls, 15 Orient (2019).
I am currently working between the media of collage, sculpture, painting and installation to create mini environments based on my dreams. I have always struggled with (and been inspired by) my insomnia, dreams/nightmares and sleep paralysis. I find through using my dreams as subject matter I can explore my everyday emotional states and most buried memories simultaneously with few limitations. -Tashi Fay
