TAYLOR MARIE PRENDERGAST (USA, b 1990)

Taylor Marie Prendergast is a Los Angeles-based multidisciplinary artist who works in painting, drawing, video and performance. Born and raised in Southern California, she studied at CalArts (2013) and the San Francisco Art Institute (2012). Prendergast is mostly known for her monochromatic palette, vigorous gesture, and direct depictions of her subjects. Her work explores themes of peril (both domestic and psychological), and often provokes a complex response.

Since 2018, Prendergast has exhibited paintings and drawings in solo and group exhibitions with Carlye Packer, Half gallery, and Diane Rosenstein (among others), in Los Angeles; with Stems Gallery in Paris, and LVL3 in Chicago. The artist lives and works in Los Angeles, California.
