Sam Moyer

Sam Moyer (born 1983, Chicago, Illinois) is an American artist living and working in Brooklyn, New York.

[4] Following a residency in Switzerland, the artist's interests shifted to focus on the "poetics of the found object"[4] and she began making book sculptures.

This then transitioned into working with fabric, which Moyer distorts by dyeing and bleaching it, as well as stone sourced from local marble yards and warehouses.

[4] Moyer's expressionist pieces are said to defy the natural use of the materials she employs and to hold depth in their minimalist flatness that requires reflection in person rather than on the screen.

[6][7] The weight of the stone is said to become deceptively light on the artist's canvases, disrupting the "literal surface [with an] illusory space of uncertain, possibly infinite depth.
