"Known for her daring fusion of marquetry (wood inlay) and painting, the meticulously crafted works of Alison Elizabeth Taylor are as much about seeing as they are about making. Juxtaposing the luxurious connotations of this ancient, highly refined craft with gritty images of postmillennial American life, Taylor creates a tension between surface and subject, appearance and reality. This publication traces the evolution of the artist's work from early paintings that explore space, line, color and form within the limited palette afforded by the grains and tones of natural woods, to vividly colored 'hybrids' that layer marquetry, paint, and photographic imagery, to new and increasingly complex works inspired by the resilience of the artist's urban neighborhood and community during the pandemic."--
