Erin Miller

Erin Miller (she/her) is an artist based in Ithaca, New York, and Houston, Texas. Miller's studio practice is one that is situated in printmaking and its expanded definitions. While using print as a starting point, she often traverses between disciplines — painting, drawing, textile work, and sculptural installation — to investigate themes of perception and the theatrics of making. In 2022 she received an M.F.A. from Cornell University, where she was the recipient of the Kip Brady Memorial Prize (2021 and 2022) and the John Hartell Graduate Award in studio excellence. She is currently the Kahn Family Fellow at The Ink Shop, located in Ithaca, New York, and the 2022 Recipient of The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts' Robert Blackburn Printmaking Award, EFA at Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop, New York, New York.
