why

Our creations are deeply rooted in the exploration of the human condition, drawing inspiration from the profound connection between art, psychology, and the spaces we inhabit. We believe in the transformative power of design—how the subtle intricacies within a home can shift one’s mood and elevate the spirit. Our goal is to craft artwork that invites a moment of pause, encouraging the viewer to be fully present, immersed in the tactile narratives woven into each piece.

We are passionate about evoking emotions that defy description—those elusive feelings that emerge, unnameable yet potent, as you engage with our art. It’s this visceral response, one that resonates physically, that gave rise to our name. Time and again, viewers shared how our work moved them in ways words could not capture.

My personal journey through healing from childhood trauma has reinforced the significance of these unspoken emotions. They often hold the key to understanding the deeper, unresolved layers of our psyche. Through our art, we seek to create a space where these buried sensations can surface, offering a path to reflection and healing—an invitation to explore the moments our bodies hold onto, awaiting release.

how

Our combined and individual creative practices embrace an exploration of raw, natural materials juxtaposed with carefully crafted structural elements. From plaster, concrete, and foraged rock pigment to clay, exotic and driftwood, hand-spun yarn, wool, leather, ground gemstones, iron, healing crystals, rust, and sand—our work is a study in contrasts and connections. Every piece is an experiment in layering, blending, and expanding our artistic language, constantly evolving through materials that carry the weight of their origins.

Together, we thrive on pushing creative boundaries. We constantly challenge uncertainty, sparking fresh ideas with every brainstorming session. Connor initiates the process by constructing canvases, meticulously stretching linen, wood, or metal to form the foundation. His sculptural approach extends into crafting unique wooden pieces, blending diverse materials and woodworking techniques. Taylor then brings her visionary eye to the canvas, imbuing it with texture, embroidery, and intricate layers of paint. Each painting finds its home in one of Connor’s custom frames, using various species of wood to enhance the finished work. Our partnership honors the individuality of each piece while creating a cohesive dialogue between form and function.

We believe in using our art to spark conversations that are often left unspoken. Through abstract expressionism, we take difficult, often uncomfortable subjects and transform them into a visual narrative that invites vulnerability. Our work draws heavily from the earth, using foraged pigments and designs inspired by the natural grain of wood. The interplay between joy, pain, and the yearning for authenticity motivates us to create, continually seeking to deepen our connection with those who encounter our pieces.

Our process often begins by envisioning the space where each piece will ultimately live. We consider not only the textural and visual impact it will have on its surroundings but also the emotional resonance it will evoke. Each creation is imbued with intention, a quiet faith that the right collector will find it and feel an immediate, visceral connection. This alignment between artist, artwork, and space is something we strive for in every project, and time and again, it has guided our pieces into the homes where they belong. We are endlessly captivated by the psychology of design—how the elements within a space can either foster tranquility or unsettle the mind. For Taylor, the dream has always been to create safe, authentic spaces—both for herself and for those who welcome VISCERAL HOME into their lives. Connor provided me my first "safe space" and "home" - it’s this dedication to creating environments that support mental well-being that underpins every work of art we produce.

design INFLUENCES/

The team uses their trade name, visceral home, to avoid conforming: defying any singular artistic label. Constantly evolving, the duo pushes the boundaries of their craft by reimagining techniques, processes, and styles, never bound by convention. Beyond sculptural wall art and installations, they are now venturing into conceptual furniture design, with an anticipated collection launch slated for late 2024.

Drawing from their profound admiration for interior design and architecture, their creative instincts are sparked by immersive and thoughtful design principles. It’s the fusion of art and psychological function that truly captivates them—designing pieces that resonate as timeless investments rather than mere décor. Their works stand apart from ephemeral trends, designed to be heirlooms, passed down and cherished across generations—a visual narrative that intertwines with the lives it touches.

VISCERAL HOME’s aesthetic is a rich tapestry, woven from influences spanning decades and continents. They draw inspiration from the architectural elegance of the 1950s-1970s, with an eclectic mix of Mid-Century, Bauhaus, Scandinavian, Mediterranean, Asian, tapestry, Industrial, and bohemian design elements. As spaces continue to evolve and morph, their creations are meant to endure, seamlessly adapting to the ever-changing personalities of the rooms they inhabit.
