Bio Photo\" width=\"389\" height=\"259\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Montana Torrey is an American artist who employs the landscape as a metaphorical tool to investigate oppositions between and within the public and domestic spheres. Her multi-disciplinary work, which includes temporary outdoor installations, photography, painting and sculpture, explores sites of protection, paranoia, absence, and longing. Torrey has been an Artist-in-Residence at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, Headlands Center for the Arts, Vermont Studio Center, Catwalk Institute, and the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture, among others. She has a BFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a MFA from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.<\/p>\n<p>Montana will be in Tartu for a residency of 3 months, from 05.04.2016 till 28.06.2016.<\/p>\n<h2>Artist Statement<\/h2>\n<blockquote><p>I would like to use my time at Tartu Artist in Residence Program to explore the local environment, architecture and landscape to create site-specific responses to the theme of marriage\/coupling\/opposition\/duality\/pairs\/union. I will invent a language that utilizes painting, sewing, embroidery, and found material to create a dialogue between ideas and physical space. My installations will address the issue of \u201cbeing second\u201d by forcing the viewer to visually experience a relationship or tension between two spaces\/ideas\/materials. A subtext of primary and secondary will arise out of the physical space and materials by way of inventing a dialogue between the two. My installations will be based on the theme of pairs, challenging the notion of hierarchy in binary opposition, as second implies a first; a tension or a struggle between first and second. By creating a language of pairs, I will create a psychological exploration of coupling.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Previous Works<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_1872\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/2.Torrey.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1872\" class=\"wp-image-1872\" src=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/2.Torrey.jpg\" alt=\"The Afterglow (after Frederic Church), hand-painted silk organza, site-specific installation Catwalk Institute, Catskill, NY, various dimensions\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1872\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Afterglow (after Frederic Church), hand-painted silk organza, site-specific installation Catwalk Institute, Catskill, NY, various dimensions<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1873\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/3.Torrey.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox-2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1873\" class=\"wp-image-1873\" src=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/3.Torrey.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1873\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Victory Over the Sun, documentation of performance\/ painting, Skagastr\u00f6nd, Iceland<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1874\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4.Torrey.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox-3\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1874\" class=\"wp-image-1874\" src=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/4.Torrey.jpg\" alt=\"Everyman\u2019s Law, site-specific installation, H\u00e4meenkyr\u00f6, Finland, printed silk organza signs\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1874\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Everyman\u2019s Law, site-specific installation, H\u00e4meenkyr\u00f6, Finland, printed silk organza signs<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1875\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5.Torrey.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox-4\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1875\" class=\"wp-image-1875\" src=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/5.Torrey.jpg\" alt=\"We Buy Gold, site-specific installation, H\u00e4meenkyr\u00f6, Finland, hand-cut tarpaulins, various dimensions\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1875\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">We Buy Gold, site-specific installation, H\u00e4meenkyr\u00f6, Finland, hand-cut tarpaulins, various dimensions<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1876\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/6.Torrey-scaled.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox-5\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1876\" class=\"wp-image-1876\" src=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/6.Torrey-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"We Buy Gold, (detail, Cash 4 You), site-specific installation, H\u00e4meenkyr\u00f6, Finland, hand-cut tarpaulins   \" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1876\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">We Buy Gold, (detail, Cash 4 You), site-specific installation, H\u00e4meenkyr\u00f6, Finland, hand-cut tarpaulins\u00b5<\/p><\/div>\n<p>More about Montana:\u00a0<a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/www.montanatorrey.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.montanatorrey.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[17],"class_list":["post-7143","resident","type-resident","status-publish","hentry","category-typa-residency"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Montana Torrey - TYPA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/typa.ee\/en\/resident\/montana-torrey\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Montana Torrey - TYPA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Montana Torrey is an American artist who employs the landscape as a metaphorical tool to investigate oppositions between and within the public and domestic spheres.
