Baker Artist Portfolios

Caitlin Gill is a mixed media artist living in Baltimore, Maryland. She has a B. A in Drawing and Painting from Towson University and an MFA in Curatorial Practice and Art Criticism from the Ontario College of Art and Design. She currently works as the Exhibition Director and Arts Directory Coordinator for Maryland Art Place (MAP) and the Maryland State Arts Council.

In exploring the divergence between craft and fine art and the implicit misogyny within the distinction between the two, Gill uses printmaking, sculpting, drawing, painting, collage, and fiber to create artwork that explores ideas of identity, femininity, and domesticity. By Evoking ideas of discomfort and repulsion, she encourages viewers to engage in the inherent violence exercised in the construct of the feminine.
