About

Erin Langley is an artist and arts educator based in Oregon. Langley’s materially-driven, accretive work explores the porous boundary between the natural and the synthetic. Through methods that span painting, drawing, and sculpture, she interrogates the networks of desire and taste that shape our perceptions of authenticity and artifice, beauty and toxicity.

Langley’s work has been exhibited throughout the United States, including at Moscow Contemporary in Moscow, ID; Ditch Projects in Springfield OR; Carnation Contemporary in Portland, OR; Coos Art Museum in Coos Bay, OR; and Bunker Projects in Pittsburgh, PA. She has been an instructor of Art and Art History at the University of Oregon, and her studio practice has been supported by numerous awards and residencies including the Oregon Arts Commission, the Phillip H. Johnson Endowment Fund, the Carlene Ho Award for Excellence in the Arts, and Vermont Studio Center. Langley earned an MFA in Art from the University of Oregon in 2022 and holds a BFA in Painting with a minor in Art History from the University of Montana (2019).
