Liz Tran is a multidisciplinary artist based in the Pacific Northwest, working between Seattle, Oregon's Willamette Valley and wherever else her work takes her. Tran’s work draws inspiration from dreams, the natural world, outer space, and the human psyche, reimagining natural forms through vibrant, synthetic hues that serve as a joyful antidote to the mundane. While painting is central to her practice, she embraces a wide range of creative mediums, including sculpture, large-scale installations, projection mapping, art direction for music videos, and fashion collaborations. Her work aims to stretch boundaries and bring joy through innovative, impactful projects.

Public collections of Tran’s work include the City of Seattle's Portable Works Collection, Capital One, Vulcan Inc., Baer Art Center, Camac Art Centre, The El Paso Children’s Hospital, Harborview Medical Center, The King County Public Art Collection and The Child Center. Tran has completed multiple special projects and installations, including work for VH1 Save the Music Foundation, The Upstream Music Fest, The Seattle Art Museum, The Brain Project Toronto, Public Art at The Aqua Art Fair Miami and Vulcan Inc.

She has been awarded multiple fellowships and grants; including a Grant for Artist Projects (GAP) from Artist Trust, Clowes Fellowship for residency at the Vermont Studio Center, the Nellie Cornish Scholarship and residency at The Camac Art Centre in France, Babayan Culture House in Turkey, Cill Rialaig in Ireland, The Baer Art Center in Iceland, Jentel, Millay Colony for the Arts and The Center for Contemporary Printmaking.
