Clive Moloney: Between Trees

Clive Moloney’s (Cincinnati, OH) art practice revolves around utilizing natural materials including plants, wood, wild clay, and animal bones found in the woodland around his home in the Clifton neighborhood of Cincinnati. His work aims to create visual myths that display stories of our kinship with the more-than-human world using themes of animism, ritual, death, and beauty. In the current Anthropocene epoch we have lost awareness of and reverence for the natural world. Moloney’s work aims to inspire a sense of awe and responsibility for the beauty and complexity of the world around us.
