Allison Ashley is a multidisciplinary artist who focuses on the vulnerability of the human experience and our connection to one another. Moving with her family at a young age across the country ignited a curiosity for other cultures and experiences, and desire to learn. Throughout her 20’s Allison lived and sojourned overseas, these experiences lead her to create pieces observing the idea of home, sacrifice, community and hope in the midst of loss. Her work takes on a symbolic experiential element in order to invite those who engage with them into a journey of their own processes, contemplation, conversations and release. It is by no means a coincidence that Allison’s middle name is Hope, as it is a centric theme wrestled within her body of work.
