Aurora is a Rhode Island-based woodblock printmaker whose work is driven by a deep curiosity for and connection to the natural world. Drawing on her background in Environmental Science, her prints are grounded in ecological research and invite viewers to consider the intricate relationships between native species, their habitats, and ultimately our role as part of the environment. Aurora received formal training in relief printmaking through coursework at Simmons University and Massachusetts College of Art and Design, and has continued to develop her practice since graduating in 2020. She has since completed three Big Ink workshops creating large-scale woodblock prints, been featured three times on Speedball Art’s social media through week-long content takeovers (specifically focused on educating about relief printmaking techniques), and had her print American Bittern (2022) accepted into the Worldwide Printmaking Exhibition 2023 in Dover, New Hampshire. Her work will be featured in SouthCoast Almanac magazine’s Spring 2026 issue as the imagery for an article focused on six different native species. In addition to her studio practice, Aurora teaches private woodblock printmaking lessons from her home studio, sharing the beauty of this unique process with others. Her work is currently available at Harmony Winter’s Jewelry Shop in Westport, MA, including large works Freedive (2021) and Labellum (2025).
