Brooke Toczylowski (b. 1981, Pittsfield, Massachusetts) is a multidisciplinary, research-based artist whose work explores our ecological, historical, and socio-political relationships to land. Having lived across New England, Venezuela, Guatemala, New York City, and Oakland, California, they currently reside on Sicaog and Wangunk land in central Connecticut. Toczylowski collaborates with plants and natural materials—such as red amaranth and garden fencing—to investigate resilience, control, and the sentience of the living world. Working across painting, printmaking, performance, and installation, their contemplative works create space for grief, regeneration, and the complexities of belonging. Toczylowski has exhibited widely, including at Five Points Arts Gallery, Installation Space, Gallery RAG, Anonymous Society Gallery, the Cambridge Art Association, and the Kala Art Institute. They have received multiple Artist Respond grants from the Connecticut Office of the Arts and participated in residencies at Walkaway House, Millay Arts, In Cahoots, Loomis Chaffee, and the Kala Art Institute. Toczylowski holds a BA in Studio Art and American Studies from Williams College and an MFA from Clark University, with a thesis exhibition at MASS MoCA in January 2025. Collectors are drawn to Toczylowski’s work for its conceptual depth, sensitivity to the natural world, and the way it invites reflection on our connections to land, life, and history. Each piece offers a thoughtful, resonant presence, transforming space into a place for contemplation and discovery.
