Shapes of an Expanding Universe, 2013

Erin Washington

Erin Washington embraces materiality and labor to examine themes of vulnerability and permanence. Questioning how time structures transitions in ephemera, she creates mixed-media paintings, drawings, and sculptures, which unravel time through the performance of their making, and their subsequent degradation. Washington is currently a lecturer in the Painting and Drawing Department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where she received her MFA in 2011. Notable solo exhibitions have been held at such venues as The Riverside Art Center, Riverside Illinois, Johalla Projects, Chicago; and Skinny Squirrel Gallery, Denver.  Her work has also been included in group exhibitions at such spaces as Heaven Gallery, Chicago; Zolla Lieberman Gallery, Chicago; Julius Caesar, Chicago; and Columbia University in New York.
