Lauren Crawford

Employing painting, printmaking, and sculpture, L.A. Crawford engages deeply with materiality and form in their practice.

Crawford’s installations and designed spaces reinterpret our understanding of culture while examining how history has shaped and sometimes distorted our present. Crawford received their B.F.A. in painting from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and their M.F.A. from the Maryland Institute College of Art, Mount Royal School of Art. They recently completed the D.C. Art Center’s Sparkplug Fellowship, have previously been awarded the 77Art Fellowship, and have participated in the Art Institute of Chicago’s summer residency program in Siena, Italy. Their work has been published in the Museum of Americana catalog, and they have created installations for the Museum of Outdoor Arts in Denver, Colorado. Crawford currently resides in Washington, D.C., and teaches sculpture at the Washington Studio School.
