Taylor Jean

and there’s a well that i go to 
and i’ll go there more because
every time im without you to
even this silence im less than likely
than what you took my birthday right
by the exit i waited long enough once
and now in this catastrophic space
where my levels are not quite normal
i’m listening to my latest idea

Taylor Jean is an Atlanta based artist who mostly works with music, drawing & painting, and poetry. She is very focused on physical, process oriented art. This idea of ‘the artist’s hand’, Taylor wants you to look at her work and know where she was physically in relation to the piece. Brush strokes, lines drawn, live recordings, poetry where you can see the artifacts of the iPhone notes app. She doesn’t want you to say, “How did someone do that? What’s the idea?” Instead it’s, “Oh, Taylor did that.” You can tell by her handwriting. Yeah, that’s her dyslexic guitar playing, you can just tell. She’s always going on about that. I seek to embody this cursed modern hell we all know we live in. It’s not, “this is art about the apocalypse” so much as, “this is a person who has been touched by the wasteland and you can tell you can see how it’s affected her she’s not really hiding anything so just listen to her voice you can hear how it’s cracking.” That’s sort of the idea, anyway.
