Brianna Martray is a working artist living in Pittsburgh, PA. She has been a full time artist since 2006, starting out as a painter before moving to sculptural work in 2010. Also in 2010 she did a large scale installation piece that was shown at Denver International Airport for a year. Her current work uses a wide range of materials, from cast bronze, cast resins, resin clay, thread, paper and cheese cloth. Brianna's work is driven by world-building. One of the greatest moments of freedom she found in her work was when she stopped painting and started sculpting-- for the first time she felt she wasn't creating an illusion of her vision, she was creating a tangible object that cast a shadow, bringing her imagined world to life in this one.
