Cathy Della Lucia
Cathy Della Lucia (b. 1989 South Korea) is a sculptor engaging in themes of (im)permanence, (un)belonging, and the construction of identity, drawing on her experience as a transracial adoptee. She employs furniture joinery to create multi-part sculptures that are built to come apart. Her work reflects on modularity and the contradictions of identity by repositioning the relationships between body, tool, and toy. The hand carved and digital fabricated forms borrow from misaligned and misplaced fragments of everyday life that relate to, without being a body. These elements are signifiers of distraction, but are created through obsessive attention and touch.
She has exhibited her work in the US, Denmark, and South Korea. Recent exhibitions include Radial Gallery, University of Dayton (OH), Kniznick Gallery, Brandeis University (MA), Abigail Ogilvy Gallery ( Boston, MA), and Piano Craft Gallery (MA). She has completed residencies at Vermont Studio Center and The Blue House (Dayton, OH). Cathy holds a BA in Studio Art from Xavier University and an MFA in sculpture from Boston University. She currently teaches sculpture as an Assistant Professor of Studio Art at Boston College.
