Erin Woodbrey is a visual artist, gardener, and beekeeper whose interdisciplinary work encompasses installation, sculpture, printmaking, photography, and time-based media. Imagined as objects that one may find in a museum of a future-past, Woodbrey weaves together science, mythology, and the material cultures of prehistory to the present to create work that pushes material boundaries and examines existential and socio-political aspects of climate change. Often using found objects, homegrown, and salvage materials, Woodbrey asks essential questions about how everyday objects accumulate and permeate landscapes, the body, and living systems.
