Carrie Gillen

About the artist

Carrie Gillen is a St. Louis based painter and sculptor. She received her B.A. from Loyola University in New Orleans and her MFA from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. Her current body of work focuses on materiality, abstraction, and nuanced color relationships. She uses fabric to amplify movement and tension in her work. As fabric folds and bends into a dynamic canvas, color and light are refracted in new ways.
