Rachel M. Bray is a contemporary artist and writer.
She was born in Montreal when the body in the trunk was still warm. She was twice awarded the Joseph Beuys Memorial Scholarship by the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. In the Anna Leonowens Gallery she presented NSCAD’s first solo digital art show. Her curatorial internship with Eye Level Gallery (Halifax) supplemented her experience with the Art Gallery of UMoncton and Galerie Sans Nom (Moncton).
In 2010 she undertook a study of graphite work as prelude to her return to traditional painting. Illustrations from this period were featured in two issues of Tiny Pencil Magazine (London). She has for decades written about the evolution of digital culture, technology and ethics in art. She is married to IBM software architect, author and cybersecurity expert Rory Bray. Together they make their home in Fredericton, NB where they enjoy a life of simple pleasures and professional dedication.
