Brandy Bourne
Asheville, NC
Based in the ancient forests and worn mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, Brandy Bourne
draws deep inspiration from her Appalachian heritage, her family of folk-art creatives, and the rich
legacy of Black Mountain College. A former gallerist, art fair organizer, and archivist at UNC
Asheville, her diverse professional life—spanning book preservation, web development, and textile
arts—deeply informs her visual practice. Bourne describes her style as minimal in detail yet
maximal in resonance: elemental, dreamily stark, and possessing a moonlit, cozy luminosity.
