Aurelia “Alder” Wrenn (1994- ) is an artist who uses photography and paper collage to trace echoes of closeness.
Born and raised in Maryland, they have lived and worked in Maine since 2018. Their artistic practice often involves taking things apart and then squashing them back together. The subject of their work is constantly shifting but usually deals with beauty, identity, ritual, compulsion, familiarity, and stillness.
When not working on multiple projects at once, they can be found reading, baking, exploring the natural world, volunteering with MaineTransNet, or snuggling with the nearest cat and/or dog.
