JLG Projects presents: Sam Dienst Cartoon Logic an exploration of concepts of materialism and the detritus of everyday life. Sam Dienst layers familiar objects alongside amorphous shapes to fabricate a playful assemblage of color and form. Her vibrant tapestries depict mundane and disparate objects that weave a narrative of daily rituals, perceptions, and experiences. Overlapping elements form painterly compositions of entangled domestic articles, resulting in dynamic, confetti-like clusters that challenge the viewer’s perception of scale. Drawing inspiration from her immediate surroundings, Dienst further manipulates visual language by melding foreground and background, rendering some objects semi-transparent, and occasionally including her name in the fabric. In Cartoon Logic, Dienst’s quasi self-portraits both critique and celebrate the endless cycle of consumption to reflect our interdependent relationship with the material world.
