Peyton Peyton is currently based in New Haven, CT. She received her BFA in sculpture from the University of Georgia in Athens in 2016 and her MFA from Yale School of Art in 2020. Working primarily between sculpture and performance, she carefully considers the awkwardness and hilarity of being in a body. In her practice, she attempts to understand the internal dysfunction and memory of the biological garment. Peyton Peyton focuses on digestion- the point where one embodied site, self, or realm meets another- and the hypnagogic threshold between waking and dreaming. Through the accumulation of repetition, movement, and object based performance, she explores the way bodies function, fail, and age.
