Erin Bundock is a mixed media artist and writer whose practice includes printmaking, painting, and fiber arts.

​

Set in worlds both real and imagined, she creates portraits inspired by folklore and myth. She draws from these stories that grapple with what it means to be human. Through her work, Bundock explores what magic we may take for granted- the magic of loving, of sacrifice, or simply breathing. Tender, open-hearted, and bold, her work focuses on moments of action, inviting viewers into the broader story within each piece. 

​

Bundock’s use of pattern acts as a visual throughline across the mediums she works with. Pattern surrounds us, found in everything from embroidery to the cellular structures in our bodies. We are drawn to it and make meaning out of it. Bundock is interested in pattern as an action, a practice of adornment, placemaking, and identity.

Bundock’s family ties to scenic design and biological studies cultivated her interest in art making and health from an early age. In 2020, she graduated from the University of Vermont with a Bachelor’s degree in Studio Art.

Since then, she has shown across New England, New York City, and Prague. She sits on the board of The Young Writers Project, a non-profit dedicated to publishing and supporting young writers and artists. She also works with The South End Arts and Business Association, an art non-profit that supports artists in her home city. She currently lives and works in Burlington, Vermont with her partner Jeremy and their dog Robin.
