Amy Smith is a self-taught contemporary artist. Born in New Jersey, she moved to Los Angeles where she found inspiration, mentors, and support in the Street Art community.

In her Collage Portrait Series, Amy Smith uses photography, layers of hand cut stencils, and torn recycled fashion magazine pieces to deconstruct self-identity from brand identity. Using upcycled magazines gives an added importance to the environmental while focusing on a new narrative showcasing women with the goal to unify. These portraits create a space to feel connected to oneself and to each other in authenticity.

Smith’s mixed media collages have been shown at Saatchi’s The Other Art Fair, Wallspace Gallery, The Whole 9 Gallery, and been part of auctions such as revered Julien’s Auctions with artists like Mr. Brainwash, Shepard Fairey, and Andy Warhol . Smith’s works can also be found on online galleries like SaatachiArt and Artsy.net.

Amy Smith’s work has been featured in a number of private collections, residences, businesses, television shows and films. She is currently exploring a new series of collage with neon elements and a series of stencils on natural wood.
