ARTIST BIO FOR RAY BORCHERS WRITTEN BY MICHELLE FREYA:
Surrealism artist Ray Borchers creates a visually intuitive realm where dreams and reality collide. Her emotive work utilizes various techniques, including collage, warm colors, large-scale painting, and more. By arranging sourced imagery and metaphorical subjects into an evolving composition, Ray evokes a deep-core feeling through under-painted figures observing a world unraveling around them. Inspired by the reconnection with lost memory, pop culture, and dry humor, her work embodies the complexities of the human condition. Borchers has curated several art shows, including the Phantom Gallery CHOP SHOP, which she ran for over a decade. She has also recorded and performed music in multiple bands and as a solo artist, creating and directing music videos for many different musical projects. Ray's images are also on garments designed within her co-owned clothing brand, boy names, and on t-shirts where she draws portraits entirely in Sharpie. She is a current member of AITIS Band, who are putting together their 4th album. Ray Borchers graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She is based in Brooklyn, NY.
“I am tightroping between realms of consciousness and subconscious as a means of reality confronting certain subjects.”
