Allison recently set out on her official pursuit as a full-time artist after nearly 8 years in banking and customer service. While she has always been drawn towards art it wasn't something she engaged with intentionally until her teens while taking art classes in high school. She was very observant in her childhood and spent time studying light and color in her daily life.

In her body of work she explores the different components of the self and identity in relation to the world. Some other inspirations include nature, music, family, politics and her own mental health journey.

artist bio
Allison Frances is an emerging multidisciplinary artist based in Pennsylvania. Growing up in an indoctrinating and oppressive environment, she finds healing and self-expression through art, allowing her to work through complex experiences. She now works to hold space and celebrate herself by letting her experiences with depression, anxiety, and trauma influence her art in many ways, sometimes subtly. Since her artistic practice was born from burnout, it now centers around rest, healing, and self-reflection. She enjoys observing and capturing the nuances of light and color while exploring themes like nature, humanity, trauma, oppression, and the global struggle for justice. In her current show, Born Screaming, and as she navigates the realities and perceptions of being an artist, Allison invites viewers to engage with themselves and the world around them more thoughtfully and empathetically.
