DESCRIPTION
Monoprint and charcoal on paper
11 x 8.5 in
2025
These layered monoprinted drawings are created to hold space for dialogue and discovery. Through the process, the ink—pressed, diffused, gritty, ghosted, or blurred—forms an abstracted ground to work through, deconstruct, and reimagine experiences and cultural narratives. From this, new possibilities can emerge, grounded in empathy and care.
BIO
Mary Lamboley is an interdisciplinary artist and teacher from St. Louis, Missouri. Through her work, she aims to disrupt the cultural narratives she once thought were fixed, binary, logical, or real. To honor the complexity of life amid war, climate change, and mass extinction, she asks: what is the artist’s role, and how can art support reconciliation and regeneration?
Lamboley has participated in numerous shows in the US and Europe, and has taught studio art courses at the Mediterranean Center for Arts and Sciences in Syracuse, Italy; Webster University; Washington University; St. Louis Community College; and Principia School in St. Louis. She was a resident artist at the Vermont Studio Center, where she also won the Robert Motherwell Foundation’s Dedalus Award. She was recently awarded an Artist Support Grant from Missouri’s Regional Arts Commission.
