MADELEINE GRACE HERMANN was born and bred in the northern Midwest, but has called New York home since she was 14. Her artistic practice has an unfixed quality to it, as many things often do when you’re 24. A woman of many interests, she has been known to depict birds, stray cats, divine light, Catholic iconography, the lore surrounding the Sicilian Mafia, and the detritus of day-to-day life, employing graphite, colored pencil, watercolor, and oil paints and pastels. An emerging curator, her approach to the process is intuitive and kinesthetic.

Madeleine graduated from Barnard College magna cum laude in 2023, and studied Art History with a Visual Arts Concentration and Italian. She recently began her MA in Art History at Hunter College, pursuing an Advanced Curatorial certificate. She plans to study American women Surrealists, augmenting her research practice by documenting it through experimental curatorial projects. 

She currently resides in Queens.
