Erin Riley Featured at Spring Break Art Show During Armory Week 2016

Erin Riley's work was highlighted as the Armory Week pick of the day on March 8, 2016. The artist participated in the Spring Break Art Show, an alternative fair running concurrently with The Armory Show in New York. Riley creates large-scale woven tapestries depicting contemporary intimate scenes, often exploring themes of sexuality, memory, and digital culture through traditional craft techniques. Her inclusion in Spring Break positioned her within a platform known for showcasing emerging and underrepresented artists during one of New York's busiest art weeks. The coverage appeared on artcritical.com, an online publication focused on critical perspectives in contemporary art. Spring Break Art Show typically occupies unconventional venues, offering a curated experience distinct from commercial art fairs. Riley's textile-based practice challenges boundaries between fine art and craft while engaging with personal and social narratives. The timing during Armory Week ensured visibility among collectors, curators, and critics attending multiple events across the city.
