French Pony is part of a new menagerie of ceramic animal sculptures that have landed by Austyn Taylor. Fun, celebratory works at the intersection of contemporary art, history and pop culture.
"Hands down the lesson for me, as an artist, has been faith in absurdity. Everything with a grain of salt, everything with friendly spirit, strengthening one's humor has never been more critical for survival! Bigger, simpler, happier! My focus on this series has been unconditional love, optimism and faith in humanity to self-educate and do the right thing." ~ Austyn Taylor

Meet the Artist
Austyn Taylor's art practice is at it’s core a reaction to the deconstructed heaps of culture left by post modernism and a search for value and virtue. Her aim as an artist is to create works which circle around sacred values such as unconditional love, authenticity, imagination and human dignity. For 20 years her work has utilized figurative characters evolved from the closest thing to authentically sacred symbols from her culture – the graphic hand drawn aesthetics found in American animation.
