Brittany J. Miller (Visual Artist)

Brittany (she/her) is a painter who lives and works in Bronx, NY. Miller’s paintings show scenes of vulnerable figures, crouched and curled up in vague domestic spaces with expressions of listlessness and trepidation. Spinning cyclones and windswept landscapes press up against the windows, threatening the interiors. The bodies at rest fill the space--daydreaming and waiting for a storm that may or may not arrive. Miller has exhibited across the Northeast, including the Edward Hopper House and Deanna Evans Projects. Her work is in numerous public and private collections, including Yale University and Montefiore Hospital’s fine art collection.
