Eve Brown is a multi-disciplinary artist and movement teacher based in Atlanta, GA. Brown’s work begins first in fascination. Through this lens, their work investigates connection, relationships and change. They are particularly interested in the magic contained within ordinary”, domestic spaces, and how what is “inner” is inherently connected to what is “outer”.

Brown is deeply inspired by their work teaching art to children. Their art and movement practices are informed by a sense of play, curiosity and open-ended questions. They are interested in leading with the body, with a sense of curiosity and experiments. In an act of rebellion, they make what their body wants to make.

Whether it’s through research, collaborative projects or movement classes, they value involving the community into their work and investigations. They are deeply curious about what it means to be human, to live a life filled with grief and joy, and how we might connect in our shared humanity through what we most often feel isolated by. Brown views art as a tool for processing emotions and connecting with the divine. They also believe that creative problem solving is at the heart of being an artist and that art can help us become more adaptive, elastic and create new and more just worlds.

Brown holds a Bachelor of Arts from Bard College where they studied painting, sculpture, poetry and digital media. Brown also received the Ellen Battel Stoeckel Fellowship to study at the Yale/Norfolk Summer Painting Program. They are the recipient of the Idea Capital Grant and also of the Nexus Fund Grant from the Andy Warhol Foundation. They have attended Volatile House for a two week residency and are an ongoing resident at Arts Beacon. They have shown work at Georgia Tech, Echo Contemporary Art and the Gadsden Museum of Art. They currently live, work and teach in Atlanta, GA, where they were born.
