Patricia Goslee

BiographyPat Goslee is an artist, designer and curator based in Washington, DC. As a painter, she considers her work representational — not of physical forms, but of emotional/energetic states. She has exhibited nationally and internationally, showing at commercial venues, universities, alternative art spaces and art fairs, and her work is in numerous public and private collections, including the U.S. Embassies in Nepal and Ethiopia, the National Institutes of Health, the Children’s National Medical Center, and the Union of Concerned Scientists.

Goslee is a recipient of four Visual Artist Fellowships from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities. Her video work is featured in the textbook Art 101: Understanding Visual Images in Our World, and her paintings are included in the publications 100 Artists of Washington, DC and 100 Artists of the Mid-Atlantic.

Her critically acclaimed curatorial projects, such as Rising Voices (DC Arts Center, 2003), have introduced emerging talents to a wider audience. She has served on the board of directors for the Washington Arts Museum and DC Art Center, the Artist Advisory Committee for IA&A at Hillyer, and the steering committee for ArtWatch, a collective of DMV artists who have come together to harness the power of visual communication to support democratic values.

Goslee holds a BFA from the University of Georgia, where she studied under AfriCOBRA painter Wadsworth Jarrell, and an MFA from Catholic University, where she studied painting under Tom Nakashima and John Winslow.
