Molly Larkey


Molly Larkey is an American artist.
Larkey, the daughter of American singer-songwriter Carole King and bass player Charles Larkey, was educated at Columbia University and Rutgers University. She is a sculptor working with a variety of materials whose work references formalism and abstraction combined with symbolic imagery and bright colours. She is concerned with the way in which art functions as a means of communication. She has made pencil copies of drawings and manuscript pages of famous writers who have committed suicide.
She has had a solo exhibition at P.S.1.
She is based in Brooklyn, in New York City.
