Sierra Faust is a Kansas City based artist and writer. She received her bachelor’s degree in Sculpture from the Kansas City Art Institute in 2018. Her drawings appropriate and map text onto physical space through the act of hand copying. The text in the work is sourced from postmodern writers like Richard Brautigan and Don Delillo, and post-punk music like Wire and Gang of Four. This body of work is particularly influenced by Jack Spicer’s The Holy Grail. The grail quest is a fitting metaphor for how copying acts as a fixation with its goal a myth in itself.
