BIO

Lawre Stone is a visual artist based in Ghent, NY. Her paintings, works on paper, and textile works combine natural imagery and the language of abstraction in otherworldly landscapes that explore relationships between interior worlds and outer experience. Stone earned a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and an MFA from the Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College. Her work has been exhibited at White Columns, NY; MoMA P.S. 1, NY; Ronald Feldman, NY; Ely Center for Contemporary Art, New Haven, CT; LABSpace, Hillsdale, NY; Tanja Grunert Gallery, Hudson, NY, Russell Janis Projects, Brooklyn, NY; and Silvermine Gallery, New Canaan, CT among others. Her work has been featured on the I Like Your Work Podcast, New Visionary Magazine and Two Coats of Paint. Stone’s 2024 solo exhibition Siren at Tanja Grunert was accompanied by a catalog essay by Lauren Levato Coyne. Her installation, Listening For Your Breathing In The Middle of The Night, was recently acquired by The Francis J. Greenburger Collection, New York and is installed in the 100M Apartments in Chicago, IL through Art in Buildings. In October 2025 she will attend the Two Coats of Paint Artist Residency, LIC, NY. Lawre Stone is Deputy Director of Bard MFA and serves on the Board of Directors of Millay Arts.
