BECKY BAILEY

Becky Bailey lives in the Greater NYC area. She received her B.A. in Fine Arts from the University of Pennsylvania in 2012 and took graduate courses in textile design from 2015-16. Her textile design work informs her art practice which involves painting, printmaking, and collage. In a climate where the latest drama reigns supreme, my work seeks to honor what is real in the lives of people drowned out by shouting on the airwaves. Through strange combinations of patterns, spaces, and scenes found in my life as well as the social media accounts of strangers, my work invites viewers to connect with and consider the day-to-day. From the mundane to the amusing, whether it’s putting in an extra hour of work at home or vomiting after a trip to six flags, all of it can be made compelling with careful attention.
