Alison Croney Moses is a Boston-based artist whose sculptural wooden works engage the senses — from the aromatic essence of cedar to the warm hues that evoke honey, ocean depths, and the comforting curves of forms that invite touch, safety, and embrace. Raised in North Carolina by Guyanese parents, Alison’s creative upbringing fostered a lifelong connection to craftsmanship expressed through clothing, cuisine, furniture, and art. These formative experiences shape both her artistic practice and her approach to nurturing future generations of artists and leaders through teaching, dialogue, and curated experiences. Her work is held in major collections, including the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, Museum of Fine Arts Houston, the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and the Fuller Craft Museum. She has received significant recognition, including the 2025 James and Audrey Foster Prize (announced by the Institute of Contemporary Art Boston), the 2024 Black Mountain College International Artist Prize, the 2023 Boston Artadia Award, the 2022 USA Fellowship in Craft, and finalist honors for the 2024 LOEWE FOUNDATION Craft Prize. In 2024, Alison’s work was presented internationally in A Common Thread That Binds Us, the Knowhere Art Gallery exhibition at the 60th Venice Biennale, further expanding her growing global reach. Named one of the 2023 WBUR 10 Makers, Alison’s work has been featured in The New York Times, The Boston Globe, American Craft Magazine, and Boston Art Review. In 2025, she debuts her first public art installation as part of the Boston Public Art Triennial, spotlighted in a recent New York Times feature on Boston’s most ambitious public art projects. Alison holds an MA in Sustainable Business & Communities from Goddard College and a BFA in Furniture Design from the Rhode Island School of Design.
