E.G. Crichton is a visual artist who creates both gallery installations and collaborative public works. She uses a range of media to explore hidden histories, collective social concerns, andcontroversies about desire. Her subject matter grows out of a conversation between site and historical research, stories from her life, and stories from people she interviews. The resulting narratives form a layered exploration of both memory and record: an uneasy alliance between private and public voices that addresses a space where repression encounters desire. She is a professor of art at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
