Shefon N. Taylor is an interdisciplinary artist whose practice investigates how absence behaves as both language and material. Working across collage, assemblage and sculptural form, she builds compositions that explore the fragment as a site of meaning — precarious, deliberate and alive with what refuses to be made whole.

Through a process she calls archival abstraction, Taylor examines how memory endures through rupture. Each tear, fold, and stitch becomes a negotiation between visibility and concealment, presence and its afterimage. Her works privilege ambiguity and quiet refusal, inviting viewers to dwell in what resists resolution and to consider how histories are both held and unsettled through material gesture.

She is currently an Artist Research Fellow at the Winterthur Museum and was previously an Artist-in-Residence with The Delaware Contemporary.
