Moriah Faith is a figurative painter from Black Forest, CO, currently working and teaching in Boston. In 2020, she received her BFA in Fine Arts from Lesley Art + Design. She became inspired to paint after being diagnosed with a painful and incurable chronic illness at the age of twelve. Her expressive and striking self-portraits document these experiences and have garnered international acclaim. Notably, she received the grand prize award from the Kennedy Center's Emerging Young Artists with Disabilities competition in 2021. The following year, her work was highlighted in two museums, including The Museum of Nonconformist Art in St. Petersburg, Russia. Outside the studio, she is an advocate and art facilitator for people with disabilities. She speaks at workshops, trainings, and conferences to promote the inclusion and empowerment of artists with disabilities.
