Aunna Moriarty

Aunna Moriarty is a lens-based artist who works with alternative process and digital photography, performance, set design, and video art. Her art practice is informed by rituals and routines in everyday life, home, and inner realities in contrast to the external world. She plays with the impact of time, color, and scale to explore the dichotomy of interior and exterior spaces and frequently performs in her own work. Moriarty was born and raised in Washington state and sees herself as a devoted Pacific Northwesterner. She began teaching at Seattle University in 2024, with a focus on video art, Photoshop, and photography practices. In addition to teaching at Seattle University, she currently teaches digital photography, alternative processes, and performance art at Photographic Center Northwest, and digital photography online at University of Colorado Boulder.
