Monika Plioplyte
Monika Plioplyte pits the physical self against the psychological. Through unglazed ceramics and leather, she alludes to bodily elements such as bones and skin to draw visceral connections between material and the psychologically fraught nature of her making and performance process. Plioplyte was born in Kaunas, Lithuania and received her BFA in printmaking from Massachusetts College of Art and Design in 2012. She is the recipient of the McMillan-Reba Stewart Travel Award for Printmakers; the Blanche E Coleman award; and the John W. Kutrich Foundation Travel Grant. Plioplyte was a founder of the Wolf Press in Boston and, co-director of the Piano Craft Gallery. Plioplyte is a 2019 MFA candidate at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
