About Andrea Burgay

Andrea Burgay is a visual artist from Syracuse, NY, living and working in Brooklyn, NY. Her work combines collage, painting, sculpture and found materials to elevate the overlooked and the mundane via transformative processes. She has exhibited nationally and internationally. Most recently, her solo exhibition Mining the Ruins: The Library was shown at Northwest Missouri State University, Maryville, MI in 2019.

Andrea is also founder and editor of Cut Me Up, a participatory collage magazine and curatorial project. Each issue presents a curated selection of original mixed-media artworks, intended for readers to deconstruct and transform into new artworks in response to curatorial calls addressing contemporary issues.
