Tricia Treacy's studio practice is at the intersection of experimental publishing, print media, installation, artist books, often weaving research into participatory and interdisciplinary projects. For over twenty years, she has attempted to blur the boundaries between art and design, craft and technology, human and machine, memory and tradition, structures and chaos, while extending the notion of a book as a means to disseminate art.

With an assortment of artist books housed in collections around the world, they tell stories, document creative research projects, and often prod others to consider ways in which they can collaborate and participate in the larger contemporary art community.

She has received a project grant from the Center for Craft Creativity and Design, and the Rome Prize from the American Academy in Rome, one of the highest recognitions in the arts. Treacy's work can be found in more than 50 collections, including the National Library of the Netherlands in the Hague, the Virginia Commonwealth University Special Collections in Doha Qatar, the Watson Library at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Walker Art Center Artist Book Collection, and SFMOMA Library.

Tricia is a Professor of Studio Art at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire, USA.
