Description: Sculpture by Jeanne Silverthorne, Jeanne (Up and Down) (rubber and phosphorescent pigment, 9" high, 2008). The image illustrates a key, long-running body of work in Jeanne Silverthorne's career that she introduced in the early 2000s, when she began producing small (less than one foot), antiheroic, cast-rubber self-portraits (and later portraits of others) as part of her larger studio project. The self-portraits, as in this work, often feature paired figures, sometimes exploring aging, the creative process, or various emotional states that relate to Silverthorne's "machines" and use metaphorical scenarios. These works have been exhibited in and collected prominent institutions and discussed widely by prominent art publications and critics.
