Ash Eliza Williams is a painter and interdisciplinary artist exploring new methods of interspecies communication and non-human language. Williams has exhibited nationally and internationally, including at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Denver (CO), Hersbruck Museum (Germany), Bronx Museum project space (NY), The New York Hall of Science (NY), and Wasserman Projects in Detroit (MI). Their work has been featured in The Washington Post, Hyperallergic, and the Brooklyn Rail. Ash often works with scientists, including collaborations and research projects at Shoals Marine Laboratory, The Museum of Comparative Zoology, Sitka Center for Art and Ecology, and McDonald Observatory.

“When I was a child, I was extremely shy, and I dreamed of being able to communicate through bioluminescence or by quietly passing information through a network of fungal filaments rather than with spoken words. These desires evolved into a fascination with alternative languages and methods of connection, as well as a deep curiosity about the inner lives of creatures. Today, I study the sentience and vocabulary of rocks, beetles, clouds, and other beings. In my studio, paintings and sculptures reach toward each other, blush at each other, antagonize each other, flirt with each other, and sometimes sit, shyly, side by side. My central goal as an artist is to discover alternative, more vibrant ways of being human and connecting with other creatures.”
