Ellie Rae Hunter is a visual artist based in New York. Hunter locates her work inside spaces where bodies are heavily scrutinized, exploring the ways in which societal expectations are absorbed by our bodies and impact our everyday lives and anxieties. She infuses institutional scaffoldings with fantastical scenarios to propose new realities. Hunter received her MFA in Sculpture + Extended Media from Virginia Commonwealth University where she was the recipient of the VCU Graduate Thesis Grant. She has participated in residencies including Shandaken: Storm King (NY), Interstate Projects (NY), Rupert (Lithuania), and Ox-Bow (MI) and has recently exhibited at Kunsthalle Bratislava (Slovakia), Trafo Gallery (Prague), Loggia (Vienna), Bass & Reiner (San Francisco), and Cordova (Spain).
