Molly Larkey (they/them) is a multidisciplinary artist and writer based in Los Angeles. In text, sculpture, painting, and ideas, they explore the productive frictions between word, image, and material. Grounded in a vision of utopian possibility, their work creates openings for radical shifts in perception that change how we see, think, and inhabit our physical selves.
They have exhibited widely with museums and galleries internationally, including solo exhibitions at MoMA PS1, New York; Gallery 12.26, Dallas; Luis De Jesus, Los Angeles; Ochi Gallery, Ketchum and Los Angeles; Dutton Gallery, New York; Human Resources, Los Angeles; and Commonwealth and Council, Los Angeles, among others. Their work was featured in “The Shape of Things to Come: New Sculpture,” at the Saatchi Gallery in London and “The Beyond” at Crystal Bridges Museum of Art. Their writing has been published with Los Angeles Review of Books, Contemporary Art Review Los Angeles (CARLA), and Haunt Journal of Art. In 2019, they co-founded People’s Pottery Project’s, whose mission is to empower formerly incarcerated women, trans and non-binary individuals through meaningful employment in a collective non-profit ceramic business.
