Ragen Moss is an artist whose work has been recognized as a leading voice at the forefront of the use of transparent material and ideation within sculpture and painting. Moss’s works operate with open spatiality, interior luminosity, and the tempo and immediacy of aliveness. A consistent conceptual affordance in Moss’s work is to highlight the moment where complex superstructures reach the contours of finite beings.
Moss was a participant in the 2019 Whitney Biennial and has had solo exhibitions at Capitain Petzel (Berlin), Galerie Gisela Capitain (Cologne), among many others. Her work has been reviewed and featured in The New Yorker, The New York Times, PBS News, Art Forum, Sculpture Magazine, Art in America, The Washington Post, The Brooklyn Rail, ARTNews, W Magazine, The Observer, Los Angeles Review of Books, Spike Art Magazine, carla, and more. Moss holds an MFA from UCLA, a JD from UCLA School of Law, and a BA in Art History from Columbia University. Moss’s work is held in the permanent collections of The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York and The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles.
