About the Artist

Carrie Wright left a career in corporate America nearly two decades ago and has since been honing her skills as a silk painter. Originally working out of her 100-square-foot home studio in the Old West End of Muncie, Indiana, in 2023 she moved her studio and gallery five blocks east into Muncie’s downtown historic Murray Building. Carrie is constantly exploring new ways of expressing ideas through her art. Being a student of multiple disciplines, she feels absolute freedom to combine ancient and completely innovative silk painting techniques. Carrie says, "I'm always thinking about light, how we experience light as color, and how different patterns of color evoke different emotional responses in all of us. Because silk reflects far more light than it absorbs, I find it to be the perfect medium for using color and pattern to communicate my thoughts and emotions."
