Bluffs demonstrates Tara Donovan’s method of accumulating small objects such as paper plates, toothpicks, pencils, or foam cups into large-scale organic sculptures. In Bluffs, Donovan transforms thousands of common, mass-produced shirt buttons into a luminescent sculpture. The teetering stacks of buttons trigger multiple associations with natural forms—mountain peaks, coral reefs, crystals, or cave stalagmites. With her meticulous artwork, Donovan both evokes wonder and invites viewers to take a closer look at everyday materials.
