Linda Byrne Artist Bio & Statement
Linda Byrne, a visual artist of works on paper and sculpture, was born and raised in New York City where she continues her practice. Linda was recently in the exhibition “Current/Undercurrent” at UMass Amherst. Other shows include “Altered States” at Marymount College Hewitt Gallery, “Brimming On The Edge” produced by The West Harlem Art Fund in the Bronx, and the well-received exhibition, “Nurturing Nature, Artists Engage the Environment” at galleries in New York and Pennsylvania. She has collaborated with the poet and sound artist, Maggie Dubris, on two multimedia installations about our disappearing natural world, with their “Vanishing Oceans Project” part of the exhibition “The Universal Sea: Pure or Plastic” taking place at various locations in Europe. Linda has received several awards and residencies, including Ucross and Jentel in Wyoming, and is the recipient of a Jerome Foundation Grant and a chashama Grant.
I create works about nature as it succumbs to climate change, a cause and symptom of our society’s turmoil and greed. Each series reflects my ongoing exploration of our vanishing biosphere. Using recurring images and blending a Western sensibility with influences of Eastern art and the immediacy of graphic design, I give voice to those that have none. My intention is to awaken the viewer’s perceptions to the impacts of ecological ruin and loss.
