Erica Green is an installation artist whose site-specific work focuses on the seemingly unending process of repairing and rebuilding oneself. She mends or knots simple fibers together in a meditative, prolific manner. The work gradually becomes a visual accumulation and record of the time it takes to heal. Each moment, each struggle blends with those that came before and eventually become impossible to distinguish. Looking back, the viewer realizes that this timeless human undertaking is simultaneously strong and fragile, messy and disciplined, heavy and light.

Green received a BFA from the University of Nebraska and completed a two-year post- baccalaureate program at the University of Colorado Boulder. Her work has been shown nationally in galleries, such as RULE Gallery and RedLine Contemporary Art Center. In 2019, she was awarded The Director’s Award in The Art of the State exhibition at the Arvada Center for the Arts. Green lives and works in Boulder.
