This is the word she uses to describe herself, for she has no desire to seek control over the direction of her work within its creative journey. Instead, she wanders aimlessly and follows \u201cwherever the road takes me\u201d. Yet despite this lack of agenda, it is clear that her art is imbued with socio-political significance.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Over the years, she has developed a uniquely blended form of storytelling that incorporates experiences and trauma drawn from her own life. In order to do this, she combines symbolic imagery from art historical and mythological legends with elements of the natural world and allusions to her own religious background. The result is a collection of eclectic symbols, which subtly allows Smith to articulate the condition of man and our perilous relationship with the planet, a concern underlying her work. Although Smith is not ostensibly engaging with political sensibilities, through the poetry of her artwork, she quietly responds to the ecological crisis we are now faced with.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-medium wp-image-32247\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.modernartoxford.org.uk\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Pool-Of-Tears-low-res-300x205.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32247 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/205;\" \/><figcaption>Kiki Smith, <em>Pool of Tears II<\/em>, 2000.

This produced a lasting effect, and in the early 90s Smith turned her focus towards the natural world. The shift was marked by the installation of a bronze-cast sculpture, depicting a murder of dead crows that lay strewn across the floor. \u2018<em>Jersey Crows\u2019 (1995) <\/em>was made in response to a news report documenting a strange phenomenon where a flock of birds fell dead from the sky in New Jersey, supposedly killed by air pollution. Smith has since described feeling \u201cin some way responsible\u201d for the event, and in a keynote lecture delivered at Oxford last week, lamented how \u201cwe\u2019ve lost 3 million birds in the United States due to environmental changes\u201d. What\u2019s more, the identity of the crow is steeped in traditional meaning within folklore, considered the harbinger of death; in the context of Smith\u2019s sculpture, these inauspicious birds fulfil their role as omens for what is to come.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Smith is currently being exhibited in Modern Art Oxford until January, and I urge you to pass through the vast portals of her immense yet intricately woven tapestries, draped from floor to ceiling; the stark-whitewashed walls of industrial brickwork serve as a contrasting foil to these complex and finely wrought designs. Her work betrays a preoccupation with the spiritual and mythical worlds, woven together with emblematic threads from each. As a result, these tapestries seem to me to represent the threshold between two realms, giving us access to an innocent fantastical world: the highly imaginative scenes are teeming with woodland-dwelling creatures and enthralling female figures who dance amidst the glittering foliage of dark medieval forests, beneath a host of heavenly bodies.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The choreographed compositions of these tapestries are reminiscent of the dancing chorus of woodland nymphs in Botticelli\u2019s \u2018<em>Primavera\u2019 (1482), <\/em>and by association their allegorical figures hark even further back in time to the pagan deities of antiquity. Yet these tapestry utopias harbour a hidden purgatorial sensibility, perhaps informed by Smith\u2019s Catholic upbringing. Balanced indefinitely between heaven and hell, the artist indicates that any disturbance to nature\u2019s equilibrium holds the capacity to tip the scales either way, with the imminent threat of paradise lost lying latent in the shadows, alongside anticipation for the inevitable mistake of mankind: \u201cto me,\u201d says Smith, \u201cnature is precious and wondrous; its our intervention that causes the mayhem.\u201d This resounds heavily in an age of adolescents growing up with the burden of climate change, imparted on us by the irresponsibility of previous generations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2018Sky\u2019 (2011)<\/em>, depicts a woman in the nude, elegantly unfurling her limbs as she curves round the composition. Our eye is drawn in a circular motion around the compendium of butterflies, birds and constellations that hover above the snow-capped mountain peaks, serving as an effervescent backdrop to Smith\u2019s dreamscape. The artist\u2019s choice to reveal the figure\u2019s lucid porcelain flesh in all its raw beauty is significant, since her naked vulnerability communicates a natural ability to live sustainably alongside our environment, and to preserve all the ecosystems at work beneath the surface. This notion of coalesced existence is expressed through the portrayal of harmony between woman, animal and forest.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-medium wp-image-32248\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.modernartoxford.org.uk\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Sky-low-res-198x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32248 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 198px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 198\/300;\" \/><figcaption>Kiki Smith, <em>Sky<\/em>, 2012.

If we want to translate this peaceful coexistence with our environment into reality we must first develop a mutual respect for our planet, or else the threat of a dystopian future will befall our young.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The nude motif works on a deeper level, for the artist\u2019s allusion to the female origin of the world traces us back to the biblical story of Adam and Eve and their existence in a prelapsarian Eden. With this reading we are reminded of the fatal nature of man\u2019s mistakes, and how our transgression against the natural world has drastic consequences tied up in our own existence. Smith herself explains in words what her art already articulates; that \u201cwe are interdependent with the natural world\u2026 our identity is completely attached to our relationship with our habitat and animals\u2026 sometimes tragically.\u201d The artist thus proves her unique role as a poetic environmentalist with another subtle nod to the climate crisis.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>De Bruge\u2019s <em>Apocalypse Tapestry d\u2019Angers<\/em> serves as one of the main influences behind Smith\u2019s own. This terrorizing work of art references the Last Judgement from the bible\u2019s book of Revelation, and stands as a symbol of the religious dread that ran throughout the middle ages: Christians all over Europe were seized with an apocalyptic fear every fin-de-ci\u00e8cle, in anticipation of their doom at the second coming of Christ. Albrecht D\u00fcrer, heralded the best printmaker of his time, came from Nuremberg, Germany \u2013 the same town in which Kiki Smith was born. At the turn of the 16<sup>th<\/sup> century, D\u00fcrer created his own <em>Apocalypse, <\/em>a series of prints highlighting the general human struggle between good and evil.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-medium wp-image-34361\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.modernartoxford.org.uk\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/KS3-56-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34361 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/200;\" \/><figcaption>Kiki Smith, Earth, 2012.

Photo by Edmund Blok.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The dual influence of de Bruges\u2019 tapestry and D\u00fcrer\u2019s prints is echoed in Smith\u2019s own post-modernist version of apocalyptic doom, via her inventive merging of printmaking and tapestry. For all three artists, the subject matter spins a common thread, with the medieval religious reckoning being substituted for a contemporary scientific prophecy: the only difference is that this time round, humanity will not be granted the same possibility of salvation as the Book of Revelation promised.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kiki Smith exhibits her own emotional and existential response to living in the world, but remains self-conscious that her art cannot \u201calleviate suffering\u201d for generations to come. Regardless, it has indirectly become a tool for communication, allowing the artist both to express her foreboding poetic insight and appeal to a world finally waking up to the destructive impact of climate change. All this is revealed through a celebration of nature\u2019s boundless beauty, woven into a silent call for action.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Words by Zoe Hind<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more about Kiki Smith: <em>I am a Wanderer<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/mao-old.focus-earth.co.uk\/event\/kiki-smith-i-wanderer\/\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this latest post, second year Classics student at Oxford University and Modern Art Oxford student ambassador, Zoe Hind takes us on a journey through the environmental, social and political themes which resonate throughout Kiki Smith&#8217;s exhibition at Modern Art Oxford.
