Elizabeth Hautau’s work explores themes of home, belonging, and the decisions made by our ancestors to transplant their roots, both literally and figuratively. She draws inspiration from her love of plants and her curiosity about cultural exchange—how seeds carried by travelers are planted to create comfort and familiarity in new regions. Born on a flower farm in the foothills of Appalachia, Elizabeth attended Moore College of Art and Design in Philadelphia, where she earned her BFA in 1999. She has exhibited at the Allisa Duckler Gallery in Portland, the Avondale Art Alliance, and the Decatur Art Alliance Emerging Artist program. Elizabeth is a former member of The Goat Farm and the Grant Park Collective (The Mattress Factory) and participated in the WhiteSpace Angel Blow-out and the Art Writers Mentorship Program with BurnAway Magazine. She lives with her partner and their son in Avondale Estates, Georgia, while actively seeking new opportunities to exhibit her art.
