Ellie Hunter

Ellie Hunter was born in 1989 in the Santa Cruz Mountains, outside of San Francisco, CA. She received her BA in Studio Art and Latin American Studies from Dartmouth College, and has participated in residencies at OxBow in 2014 and at Brooklyn Art Space in 2013. Hunter’s work engages operations of veiling, fragmenting, reflecting and re-contextualizing objects to highlight hidden systems of perception, and to bring awareness to subconscious methods of locating objects in space. Hunter was the recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts grant in 2014, and has been included in shows at Galerie Christian Berst, Woman Made Gallery, Ooga Booga, Have Company, Scene Metrospace, and Basic Land & Water.
