Audrey Barcio is an artist who uses elemental abstract symbology to posit a primordial heritage of abstraction voiced in the multifarious present. Her work addresses hidden structures and challenges perception to reveal more than what’s visible.

She earned her MFA from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and her BAE from Herron School of Art and Design and has completed residencies at the Pont-Aven School of Contemporary Art, Vermont Studio Center and Rodgers Foundation.
