About Anne Low
Anne Low is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice encompasses sculpture, installation, textiles, and printmaking. Her work comprises enigmatic modern designs that bring to the fore broader themes concerning the yearning to differentiate between objects and the self. Her works also explore the impulsion to embellish household surfaces and items. By examining these aspects, her work investigates how the desire to decorate intersects with broader social and cultural narratives. Low's investigation of the history of textiles and their materiality allows her to create contemporary forms that engage with larger narratives surrounding the urge to differentiate surface, object, and self. She produces handwoven textiles that are presented in bespoke cases made of glass and wood, highlighting the unique presence and autonomy of textiles while alluding to their intimate or practical use. By displaying them with care and attention, Low positions these works as select objects worthy of admiration, reflecting her commitment to preserving and advancing the unique orders of knowledge inherent in traditional textile practices.
