Bryn Gleason is a Queer, Female, Chicago-based, Visual Artist specializing in Intaglio Printmaking. After receiving her BFA from the University of Minnesota in 2013, she had her debut solo exhibition at the GreenPoint Gallery in New York. Gleason demonstrates an impressive level of craftsmanship by utilizing a diverse pallet of mediums, such as Copper Etching, Drawing, Painting, Photography, Acrylic Ink Transfers and Experimental Mixed Media. Her work is often deeply personal with raw and vulnerable expressions of pain and healing. Recently, her works are saturated with feminine rage and defiance, addressing themes birthed from abuse on women’s bodies and rights, domestic violence and the objectification of the female form. Her process is often grueling and tedious, resulting in an overall esthetic that is dark, introspective and eerily captivating.
