Dylan Lynch American, b. 1987

Overview

 

A member of the Brooklyn-based organization The Still House Group, Dylan Lynch constructs sculptures from everyday found objects. Mostly store-bought, Lynch’s materials are selected intuitively, for what he describes as their immediate attraction; they range from ceiling tiles and cinderblocks to shopping carts and sports equipment. He reveals his hand in the impossibly delicate and precarious constructions of his pieces—like a baseball balancing in the crux of a crowbar, a folding chair balanced on just two of its feet, or a leaning tower of drop ceiling tiles appearing constantly of the verge of toppling over.

 

Lynch has had solo shows at Art in General, NY, Galerie Rodolphe Janssen, Brussels and The Still House Group. He has also been in a number of group shows at Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens, Belgium, Bathurst Regional Art Gallery, Australia, Fondazione Museo Pino Pascali, Italy, New York, Rod Barton, London, ReMap 4 in Athens, Greece, Nahmad Contemporary, Mark Fletcher and Barbara Gladstone all New York, C-L-E-A-R-I-N-G, Brussels, and numerous Still House Group exhibitions in New York and Miami. Dylan graduated from Eugene Lang in 2011.
