About Britt

Baltimore City
Britt Law is a visual artist/illustrator who uses traditional mediums to craft images that are simultaneously whimsical and macabre. Colorful characters, frequently subverting traditional gender roles and representation, exist in backdrops from various time periods to create a modern fairy-tale like atmosphere.  They have had works shown at the Corcoran Gallery, Area 405, Connor Contemporary Art, Tectonic Space, Always April Gallery, and Reverb.
