Amy Cutler creates narrative artworks that transform internal emotions, societal observations, and complex ideas into rich visual metaphors.
She is best known for her meticulously detailed gouache paintings on paper, which often feature anthropomorphized animals, objects, and female figures engaged in surreal tasks and improbable scenarios. Beyond painting, Cutler's practice spans a diverse range of media, including multimedia installations and sculptural works.
