Brittney Boyd Bullock
As an artist working in fiber, mixed-media, and abstraction, Brittney Boyd Bullock explores the tension between searching and finding, obsession and order, and lightness and darkness through two- and three-dimensional forms. Contemplative and personal, the process-driven works interrogate anxiety and wonder using materials in a new way, forcing her to make meaning in the arbitrary jumble.
Brittney’s work is a sensory dwelling that uses repetition, color, and story in ways that trigger joy and wonder. She uses ephemera and memorabilia to reimagine possibilities, create new solutions, and ask more questions. Making new contexts for old worlds makes them new again; these new versions of what already exists are how she understands the power of play, existence, world-building, and the human experience.
