Since 1989, Roxy Paine has been filling galleries, museums, and sites worldwide with his dark, whimsical installations and sculptures, melding the industrial and the organic to explore manmade and natural systems and their ramifications. Paine divides his work into categories: Art Making Machines, mad-scientist mini-factories that produce works of art; Replicants, replicas of flora and fungi made out of industrial materials; Fungal Fields, painterly compositions of his fungi sculptures; Specimen Cases, vitrines filled with his fungal and floral replicas; and Dendroids, metal tree-like forms. Through these industrial-natural visions, Paine reveals the horror and wonder when science and nature collide.
