Ashley Brown Durand

Northampton, MA

"Gentle affirmations and bits of poetry"

Ashley Brown Durand is an artist and designer from Northampton, Massachusetts. She creates work that is intentionally both personal and universal. Her textile work draws upon her family history of quilting, as well as influences ranging from Louise Bourgeois and Eva Hesse, to the protest flags of the Woman’s Suffrage Movement, to diy punk zine culture. Her pieces explore a range of genuine human emotions - some lighthearted, encouraging, comforting; others more complex, open-ended and deeply felt. Ashley is currently focusing on creating colorful, yet minimalist quilts and larger one-of-a-kind textile poem pieces, built slowly, one tiny square at a time.
