LORI MURPHY
Lori Murphy, dual Irish and American national is a resident artist of the Zhou B Art Center. She has studied art and technology at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, sustainable building design at Harvard University, and holds an MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts from Goddard College in Vermont. Painter, photographer, and designer of energy independent buildings, her work lies in the intersection between fine arts and human geography. Engaging with the interaction of the body with the natural and built environment, her work focuses on the human experience of the world from a sensory, phenomenological perspective. Subjects include migration, place, and displacement; the search for home and happiness, cross cultural identity, the syncretic, and change over time. She is currently funded by a grant to teach studio art to a young adult with autism. Her recent work has been shown in Boston, Vermont, New York, Pennsylvania, and Chicago.
