Rachel M. Bray is a contemporary artist and writer.
She was born behind a police barricade, in Montréal under martial law, long before that was cool. She has exhibited her art around the world yet rejects most art conventions. She is a NSCAD graduate and was twice awarded the Joseph Beuys Memorial Scholarship. In the Anna Leonowens Gallery she presented NSCAD’s first solo digital art show. She completed her curatorial internship with Eye Level Gallery (Halifax) which supplemented her experience with La Galerie d’art Louise-et-Reuben-Cohen and Galerie Sans Nom (Moncton).
In 2010 she undertook a rediscovery of graphite work as prelude to her return to traditional painting. Illustrations from this period were featured in two issues of Tiny Pencil magazine. She has for decades written about the evolution of digital culture, technology and ethics in art. Her expertise today directly informs the evolution of AI in art, film and media. She is married to IBM software architect, author and cybersecurity expert Rory Bray. Together they make their home in Fredericton, New Brunswick where they enjoy a life of simple pleasures and professional dedication.
