Fitzpatrick combines appropriated images, found objects, photographs, sculpture, and video, building complex narratives littered with banal joke shop humor, sexual puns and perverse poetry. As Helen Molesworth wrote, Daphne Fitzpatrick is “reimagining…the commodity as a kind of Surrealist-inflected game piece…[she] uses the castoffs of spectacle culture to create delicate, Lilliputian tableaux inflected with visual puns”.
Daphne Fitzpatrick was born in Long Island, New York, in 1964. Selected exhibitions include A Roll in the Hay at Bellwether in New York (2007); Shared Women at Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions (LACE) in Los Angeles (2007); Little Triggers at Cohan and Leslie in New York (2003);Private View: Daphne Fitzpatrick/Nancy Shaver/Amy Sillman/Kara Walker at Brent Sikkema in New York (2001). Daphne Fitzpatrick lives and works in Brooklyn.
