About COLETTE BERNARD

Visual artist Colette Bernard (she/they) is creating colorful designs and art to wear. She was born and raised in Acadiana, the culturally rich region of south Louisiana. A common theme in her practice is her relationship with the internet, saturated color, fruits, collage, and her identity as a southern queer person. By combining a variety of both traditional and digital techniques, Bernard emphasizes merging the virtual and physical world. Bernard graduated in 2021 with a Bachelors in Fine Arts with a focus in Sculpture and Integrated Practices from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York. She also creates easily digestible and accessible art related videos on TikTok, including segments such as "Artist of the Day", "Public Art Series", and "Art World Drama". Bernard gained a dedicated following from these videos, and has been featured in the New York Times and ArtNet News for her work.Read their story
