Deborah Zlotsky
Zlotsky's stripe-built compositions propose a provisional intersection of flatness and dimension, where trompe l'oeil string holds shapes together in a tension the artist links to history and generational cycles.
Deborah received a 2019 Guggenheim Fellowship and NYFA Artist Fellowships in Painting in 2012 and 2018. Her work is in a variety of public, private, and corporate collections in the US and abroad and she has been awarded recent residencies at MacDowell, Yaddo, the Bogliasco Foundation, and the Bemis Center.
Deborah currently teaches at the Rhode Island School of Design and lives in the Hudson Valley.
