Amy Pleasant




Amy Pleasant's work is a study of the "in between" moments in life. Narrative in nature, her figures serve as stand ins for the viewer in life's smaller dramas. Intimacy is evoked, even in her large scale wallwork, calling out quiet, focused moments of intensity and poignance.

Amy makes paintings, drawings, videos, and large scale wall paintings. She works out of Birmingham, AL and is represented by The Jeff Bailey Gallery in Chelsea, NY.
