About this listen
On this episode we feature Amanda Leigh Burnham, a visual artist based in Baltimore who makes drawings and large, site specific installations which are also drawings.
Amanda’s vivid, chaotic compositions incorporate a variety of materials, styles, and techniques which result in three-dimensional collages that leap off the walls. The effect is somewhere between a comic book and a stage set.
In 2025, Amanda was the recipient of the Sondheim Art Prize. This $30,000 juried prize is awarded each year through Create Baltimore - in partnership with The Walters Art Museum - to a visual artist or visual artist collaborators living and working in the Baltimore region, targeting makers who are poised for a creative breakout.
A graduate of Harvard University (BA) and Yale University (MFA), Burnham is now a Professor of Art at Towson University.
