ERIN GRAY
VISUAL ARTIST, TEACHING ARTIST
Erin Gray, born in Lafayette, Louisiana, graduated from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette with a Bachelor’s in Visual Arts concentrating in painting in December of 2016. Currently living and working in Lafayette, Gray constantly pulls from her natural surroundings to inspire her works.
"My work focuses on the ephemeral, fragility, and power within nature. I am intrigued by the duality of opposition — active and static, continuity and abeyance, transitory and eternal. Formal elements emphasize layered contours of organic forms, fluidity of pigment, and gestural mark-making. These pieces become suspended fragments of time, leaving traces of nature’s vitality."
