Jessie Makinson (b. 1985) lives and works in London. A 19th-century tête-à-tête bench originated from France. The bench is an S-shaped, two-seater settee designed so two people can sit face to face in close proximity while a shared armrest acts as a polite physical barrier. Plucking themes and narratives from British pop culture and mixing them, intentionally, with recognizable American motifs, she creates bold new contexts for her art. She is in the collections of the British Museum, Long Museum, Shanghai; Hessel Museum, New York; and X Museum, Beijing. She has had solo exhibitions at Lyles & King, New York, US; Francois Ghebaly, Los Angeles, US; Galería OMR, Mexico City, MX; among others.
