Gina Occhiogrosso lives and works in Upstate New York. Occhiogrosso’s abstract paintings go through a process of disassembly and realignment and incorporate everyday materials like thread and yarn to trick the eye. Occhiogrosso has attended many artist residencies including MacDowell, the Elizabeth Murray Artist Residency, and The Millay Colony for the Arts. She has an MFA in Painting from SUNY Buffalo, Buffalo, NY
