Molly Greene

Multi-disciplinary artist Molly Greene’s work is inspired by the writings of philosophers and critics from her academic studies. She focusses on a critical examination of notions of the ‘femme’ and the body. Her paintings of organic forms, rendered in pastel hues, are reminiscent of botanical studies and scientific diagrams. Greene disrupts the traditional associations of her subjects, allowing them their own agency, in a playful exploration of the porous boundary between supposed binaries.

Born in Vermont, United States in 1986, Greene received a PhD, MA and MPhil in American Studies from Yale University, graduating in 2019. Her work has been exhibited extensively in solo and group exhibitions in the United Kingdom and the United States. She lives and works in Los Angeles.
