ARTIST BIO

Courtney Dudley is an interdisciplinary artist based in Kingston, NY with a specific interest in craft materials and the domestic space. Her practice includes research in archaic processes, resulting in creation of works that position the artist and viewer in relation to geologic and cosmic time, underscoring the brevity of current power and social structures. She aims to make objects that support and encourage a culture of mindful collectivism. Courtney completed her MFA from Pratt Institute (2018) and has attended residencies including The Wassaic Project and The Studios at Mass MoCA. Her first solo show, Sudden Burials, took place at Paradice Palase (Brooklyn) in August 2020 and received a glowing review from Antemag.com. She was included in the gallery’s third Annual Open Call Show, Celestial Opera, Human Cathedrals, juried by Lauren Wolchik of Gloria’s Project Space. She was also included in Wassaic Projects Summer exhibition Now, more than ever and The Vision of Care curated by Robert R. Shane at the Woodstock Artists Association & Museum in 2021. In 2022, her work is on exhibition in Finding a Memory at Piano Craft Gallery (Boston), curated by Erica b. Hess.
