Sabrina Piersol (b. 1995) is a Colorado-based painter exploring the intersection of abstraction and representation. Her work is deeply informed by early 20th-century American painting traditions, as well as the fragmented structure of the Classical Greek poetry of Sappho. Piersol balances abstract forms with explicit references to nature, maintaining accessibility while pushing the boundaries of perception. Her paintings explore themes of desire, temporality, fluidity, and speculative extrapolation. Each piece invites viewers to envision alternate pasts and possible futures, creating spaces for reflection and transformation.
Piersol received her BA from Colorado College and her MFA from the University of California, San Diego. She serves as the Assistant Director of Education at the Aspen Art Museum in Aspen, CO. Select solo exhibitions include Jack Barrett Gallery, New York, NY; Galleri Urbane, Dallas, TX; Sow & Tailor, Los Angeles, CA; Edge Art Space, Turin, IT; and the University of California, San Diego. She has participated in group exhibitions at Louis Buhl & Co., Detroit, MI; Nazarian / Curcio, Los Angeles, CA; Artemin Gallery, Taipei, Taiwan; Anthony Gallery, New York, NY; Sow & Tailor, Los Angeles, CA; 1969 Gallery, Ibiza, Spain; Friend of a Friend, Denver, CO; the University of California, San Diego, CA; and False Cast Gallery, Los Angeles, CA.
