Judith Braun, MA’82, MFA’83

Coming out of the UAlbany Master of Fine Arts program in 1983, I was a figurative painter, influenced by artists such as Rembrandt and Dürer, and interested in imbuing life into the abstract construct of angels. Over the following decades my work has radically evolved and yet I am still giving form to that which glows in the dark and to the symmetries of life; the knowable and unknowable, darkness and light, the body and the mind, not to mention the dualities of myself.
