​

Erin is a multidisciplinary artist and art educator from the United States, with experience working in studios globally. Her artistic expertise spans a diverse array of disciplines, with a particular focus on painting, poetry, scenic design, and installation art.

​

Erin's artistic philosophy centers on the idea that art is a dynamic and evolving conversation with the world. She believes that when art is deeply integrated into society, it holds the power to transform. Art, in her view, serves as a mirror reflecting both our internal and external realities. Through the process of creating art, Erin aims to deepen self-awareness and promote the well-being of communities. She sees the process of making art as a means to heal trauma, with materials used in her work symbolizing a protective layer.
