Boulevard

Alison Elizabeth Taylor is an artist who produces works using a unique method of combining painting with a technique called "marquetry," which is inlay work that creates patterns and pictures by pasting thin wooden boards together. It can be said that she is typical of artists who have expanded from crafts to contemporary art in recent years, and her highly refined works have received high acclaim both in the United States and abroad.
The wood grain of the man's clothing depicted in the work "Boulevard" is expressed through an experimental method of pasting the wood grain of natural wood onto a woodblock and then printing.

Alison Elizabeth Taylor is an artist based out of New York City. She is known for her marquetry hybrid work combining Renaissance-style marquetry with painting and collage to depict contemporary subject matter. Taylor's exhibitions have been covered in The New York Times, The New Yorker, and The Village Voice. In 2022, Taylor received the Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition Prize. Taylor’s winning work, Anthony Cuts under the Williamsburg Bridge, Morning, 2020, was featured in The Outwin 2022: American Portraiture Today, a major exhibition that was on view at the National Portrait Gallery from April 2022, through February 2023.
