AMY RICE

Minneapolis-based mixed media artist Amy Rice’s nostalgic works are deeply defined by her Midwestern roots. Growing up in a rural area, Rice found inspiration in the surrounding flora and fauna; she naturally developed an intrinsic appreciation for the simplistic yet beautiful things in life.  She has exhibited extensively at galleries in the US and beyond. She has received multiple grants and commissions, including a Minnesota State Arts Board Artist Initiative Grant, a Metropolitan Regional Arts Board Next Step Grant, and completed two large commissions for Augsburg University in Minneapolis.
