Whitney Erin Wernick (b. 1995) received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photographic and Studio Art practices from Santa Fe University of Art and Design in 2018. Wernick is an American artist who shares her connection with her body, nature, and today's world using an unforgiving and in-your-face creative technique. Wernick's focus includes self-portraits, the natural world, fashion, and abstract nude photography while highlighting the world's controversial, social and environmental issues. In collaborating with her subjects - herself, nature, and others - she utilizes each experience to uncover the softness and rarity that can lie within connection, self-love, vitality, and the human psyche. Inspired by Baroque, Impressionist, Surrealist, and Contemporary artists and poets, Wernick evolves her identity daily through various mediums: oil and acrylic paints, ink, analog, and digital photography, alternative processes (tintypes and cyanotypes), collage, video, installation (indoor and outdoor), mixed media, and natural paints using the earth, mineral pigments, and organic ingredients. Wernick has 12+ years of experience working with clients from artists, musicians, jewelers, photographers, sculptors, galleries, private investors, and more as a photographer, editor, consultant, juror, and assistant. While previously living in New Mexico for 8 years, Wernick had the opportunity to work for several acclaimed artists, including fashion, commercial, and fine art photographer Peter Ogilvie, sculptor Tom Joyce, and photographer and writer Don Usner. Since 2017, Wernick has worked for CENTER, a non-profit arts organization based in Santa Fe, NM, dedicated to supporting lens-based artists through education, public platforms, funding, and partnerships. Starting as a volunteer for Review Santa Fe, Wernick has worn many hats while working with CENTER and is currently the Programs Manager. Wernick has spent the last two years reconnecting with her practice and her family's roots. She can be found bouncing between Grapevine, TX, Hot Springs, AR, and Traverse City, MI. #WhitneyErinWernickArt Verified Credits (0)Worked with WhitneyWernickArt?
