Tina Burton
Arts/Industry: Foundry, 2000
Burton’s sculptural work functions as a diaristic archive of the human body that deals with issues of mortality, human interaction, and intimacy. Her working process involves analytical approaches paired with personal ritual, the culmination of which results in the creation of artifacts that are often darkly humorous.
Her work is in the collections of Utah Museum of Fine Arts, University of Utah Alumni House, Salt Lake Housing Authority, John Michael Kohler Arts Center, and Kohler Co.
Buron earned her BFA in sculpture from University of Utah and an MFA from School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
