Chantae Elaine Wright graduated from Hunter College and is currently pursuing her Masters of Fine Art from Florida International University where she studied in Italy, as a part of her degree. 

Chantae’s work confronts traditional notions of identity and representation. Wrights work revolve around themes of disidentification and polymorphism, i.e., otherness existing outside of social norms, reflecting Wright’s own black, queer, female, Caribbean-American identity and struggles with questioning and pushback. Wright challenges the traditional portrayal of women under the male gaze by taking back the narrative of the female gaze. Through her practice, Wright is committed to expanding the narrative of otherness to be more inclusive of everyday lived experiences, inviting viewers to engage with her work in a way that challenges their assumptions and biases. Wright lives and works in Miami, Florida.
