Rachel Villari

Rachel Villari’s work communicates emotionally subjective experiences through her bold use of colour. While drawing inspiration from a variety of styles – ranging from Artemisia Gentilischi to Hilma af Klint – her abstract paintings explore ideas related to female representation in popular culture. Her work has been exhibited throughout New England, including Rhode Island School of Design’s Woods-Gerry Gallery, the Newport Art Museum and internationally in both London and Italy. As an educator, she has taught studio and art history courses throughout her home state of Rhode Island, including RISD|CE and Johnson & Wales University. With formal training in studio art, art history and expressive therapies, Rachel holds a Master’s Degree in Art Education from Boston University.
