Carlynn Forst is an interdisciplinary conceptual artist whose work compares the temporary and finite within the human experience. Her approach utilizes sculptures, installations, videos and performances to depict the human form as it experiences cyclical events, transitions between spaces and the restraints of physical boundaries.
Comparisons to natural phenomena and references to the sacred are common in Forst’s work. She often draws upon creation stories from multiple world religions and incorporates principles of natural science. This hybridization of paradigms serves as the underpinning of her work while a sense of ambiguity reflects the enigma of spiritual experience.
