Meet The Artist

Andrea is a self-taught artist from Watertown, MA. Andrea began her collage journey in 2019 when she took an Expressive Art Therapy course and began experimenting with cutting/arranging images and words. She discovered that she was able to express herself naturally through this process.

Andrea studied holistic psychology at Lesley University where she discovered the healing powers of art and the artistic process. She believes artistic expression to have been a huge aid in her personal recovery from addiction. She continues to use art making as a way to communicate with herself, and express herself to others beyond words.

Andrea draws inspiration through her personal experiences with healing, connection, spirituality, and pain, while also using this medium for commentary on the social climate and collective human experience. Her projects often depict duality; the darkness hidden in the light, and the chaos hidden in serenity. And if you know her personally, you might notice that she lets her sarcastic sense of humor peak through some of her pieces as well.
