Baker Artist Portfolios

Elizabeth English is an artist, designer, and educator who lives and works in Baltimore Maryland. With a background in architectural design, and a long career working with historic buildings, Elizabeth now investigates how objects of all kinds can tell stories. Inquiries into history, theory, fabrication processes and collaboration all lead to deep examination of the construction of the material world and our place in it.

Her interdisciplinary approach ranges from furniture and garment design to printmaking, sculpture, projection and 3D mapping. Each project asks how the process of its making conveys meaning.
Elizabeth currently serves as Secretary of the Board of the Bard Graduate Center for Decorative Arts, Design History, Material Culture in New York City. She teaches at MICA, and has previously lectured on the impacts of changing technology on the built environment.
