about amber
Amber Hart is a first-generation American born citizen from a Belizean family that immigrated to New Orleans in 1976. She grew up in rural landscapes as she moved back and forth over state lines throughout her childhood. The adverse lifestyle shaped behavioral tendencies such as seeking out constants in public and private spaces as a source of grounding. Those constants became objects of comfort being charged by psychological tension in her paintings. Hart credits the act of painting as a catharsis by applying her personal constants, plurality psychology and domestic livestock, to act as placeholders for the human psyche in malleable realities. It is a metaphor for the consciousness of a present state, which is for her the act of ruminating. The work has been shown nationally in Baton Rouge Gallery, Ogden Museum of Art, and Southern Mississippi Museum of Art and LeMieux Gallery. Hart was featured in Juxtapoz magazine in 2025 after being awarded 'Best in Show' by Evan Pricco at Baton Rouge's Gallery Annual Surreal Salon exhibition. She lives and works in Covington, Louisiana.
