BIO

Brittany Dolence is a Philadelphia-based artist with a multidisciplinary practice. Often informed by her tumultuous rural upbringing, her romantic, contemporary paintings explore the threshold where beauty becomes restless, ethereal, and unstable. Challenging the historical genderization of beauty and the sublime.

She holds a BFA from Pratt Institute (2008). Her work has been exhibited by Era Contemporary, The Jane Gallery, and Philadelphia Sketch Club, among others. She has been mentioned in publications such as Create! Magazine and Art in New York City.

Beyond her practice, Dolence also annually serves as a guest juror for the NYC Fellowship, apexart, participating in both national & international exhibitions.
