Born and raised in post-Soviet Siberia, Gray developed a heightened sensitivity to silence, absence, and the subtleties of human emotion. She began formal art training at the age of nine and later earned her BA and MA in Advertisement Design from Saint Petersburg State University of Technology and Design. After relocating to the United States in 2010, Gray’s artistic journey evolved into a deeper exploration of the psychological and metaphysical through figurative expression.

Gray’s work is created through an intuitive process, using oil, acrylic, and charcoal to layer ambiguity and presence. Embracing restraint and space, she builds compositions where the figure becomes a vessel for unspoken emotion. Each piece is a meditation—on memory, on stillness, and on the unseen dynamics of human experience.

Gray has exhibited widely in the United States and internationally, with solo and group exhibitions in Washington, DC, Philadelphia, Mexico City, and beyond. Her growing presence in the contemporary art scene continues to resonate with collectors drawn to deeply expressive, meditative works that offer both emotional intimacy and universal insight. See less
