Born in Portland, Oregon, in 1986, Jessi Reaves studied at the Rhode Island School of Design. Her work has been showcased in numerous exhibitions, including the Whitney Biennial and the Carnegie International, and is held in the collections of the Brandhorst Museum, Munich; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; and the Walker Art Center; among others. Her work questions the notion that form follows function by creating pieces that transcend this boundary. Both playful and provocative, her handcrafted sculptures are baroque and sometimes grotesque assemblages constructed from furniture, decorative items, material scraps, and other disparate materials.
