Molly Larkey

Molly Larkey is a Los Angeles based artist whose work combines elements of language, painting, sculpture, architecture, and craft, using fluidity of form and function to propose alternatives to existing social systems. For Larkey, artworks are objects that convey meaning through their physical presence, and thereby impact the way that the body relates to the physical world. In her art, she suggests ways to imagine a world in which beneficial structures replace ones based in alienation and control. In 2019, she founded People’s Pottery Project, an artist-driven initiative whose mission is to empower formerly incarcerated women, trans, and nonbinary individuals through the arts.
