Imogen Taylor

Bio

Imogen Taylor is a Tāmaki Makaurau based painter who graduated with a Post-Graduate Diploma of Fine Arts in 2010. Her paintings boundary ride between accepted forms from the canon of abstract theory and practice – whilst frequently colliding these with their conceptual opposites – for example Cubism softened by Fauvism.

In 2022 she was the subject of the major exhibition Quiet Motel at the Whāngārei Art Museum, which followed exhibitions at the Hocken Libraries, Dunedin (2020), The Dowse Art Museum, Lower Hutt and Te Uru Waitakere Contemporary Gallery, Auckland. In 2017 Taylor was artist in residence at McCahon House and in 2019 she was the recipient of the Frances Hodgkins Fellowship. Imogen Taylor is represented by Michael Lett, Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.
