At the Brooklyn Museum, Judith Scott’s Hypnotic Sculptures Transcend “Outsider Art”

Judith Scott was an untrained artist with Down Syndrome who spent most of her life institutionalized. There is a restrospective of her incredible work at the Brooklyn Museum. Read about it here.

I love her work. AVAM in Baltimore has a number of her pieces. They’re eerie and ritualistic. I swear they make the air around them vibrate.
