“Irish Exit” is open through November 22 at Margot Samel, 295 Church Street in New York City.
“I’ve been thinking a lot about furniture,” the multidisciplinary artist Melissa Joseph says. We’re in her studio in the Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts building in Midtown, a few weeks out from her solo exhibition at Margot Samel. As a first step in making her intricately crafted mise-en-scènes, Joseph combs through her personal archive looking for photographs she’ll re-create with felt.
Joseph keeps her objects in whatever shape she found them: the silver unpolished, the pipe uncleaned. “For me it’s all about the story,” she says, “and the oxidation is part of the story of the object.” Part of her love of old, weathered objects goes back to Joseph’s childhood growing up in a rural small town in Rust Belt Pennsylvania. But there’s a deeper metaphor at play too, considering how much of Joseph’s work is re-creating old family photos.
