Biography / Judith Supine

Judith Supine is an alter ego of artist Brendan Fagan. Judith’s works come up with wheat pastes and large-scale public interventions evolving to recent paintings involving meticulous collage-quilts. Supine’s works are featured as a part of the opening of the URBAN NATION Museum in 2017.

The Brooklyn-based artist’s paintings are rendered from book covers, revealing cunning, craft and technical mastery containing both intimate narratives and rigorous abstractions. Fagan translates his skills to small deconstructed and delicate chain mobiles, too, as well as he is uniquely imaginative in inventing his alias, Judith Supine’s biography which details; ‘Supine could not speak until a month after his seventeenth birthday. He could not physically articulate words, he could only squeak and grunt. Supine often drew pictures to communicate with his family. His mom saved all of his pictures, just one of many reasons why his mom is great’.
