CareerDavis has been a professor at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design since 1999,[4] and is also the co-chair of the sculpture program at Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College.[5] In fall 2008, she was visiting faculty member at the Department of Visual and Environmental Studies at Harvard University. Her work has been widely shown across the United States[6] and Davis was included in the Whitney Biennial in 2004.[7] Davis is represented by DODGEgallery, in New York City. ArtworkDavis incorporates commonplace industrial and construction materials into her work, sometimes with a rough finish (such as pieces of wood with the bark still attached), but often with a fine craftsmanlike finish and precision joinery.[8] Even though her raw materials are everyday, mundane objects, she often sorts carefully through them, looking for the ideal wood grain or texture.[9] Much of Davis' best-known sculpture has been constructed from wood elements, such as 2x4 dimensional lumber, plywood, or wood moldings. For example, her Untitled (2001), in the permanent collection of the ICA Boston, has been compared to a shipping pallet, a garden gate, or a livestock enclosure. It is meticulously constructed of clear-grain pine, and conceals infinity mirrors inside, which reveal an infinite visual space within a simple everyday structure.[10] Davis has also exhibited non-sculptural artwork, including collages and works on canvas.[11] Grants and awards
