Carrie Cramer

Carrie Cramer is an artist and designer living in Los Angeles, California. Her tactile pieces are formed through her love of texture, flowing shapes, and stretching the limits of materials. She is heavily influenced by the composition of tree trunks, bark, and the way water flows through and around their forms.

Carrie began making art in the mid-’90s while attending the University of Southern California, where she obtained a BAFA with an emphasis in oil painting and sculpture; Ken Price was her ceramic professor. Later, she explored working with metal and large sculptures which set the tone for her smaller, ceramic sculptures.

Along with a background in costume design for television, she has incorporated her love of fabrics, shapes, color, and texture into her pieces. Carrie’s consistent aesthetic shines through her metalwork, ceramic sculptures, and oil paintings, all with very organic and biomorphic shapes that she continues to happily explore and master.
