Amanda Hoopingarner is an interdisciplinary artist with an emphasis in printmaking, sculpture and writing. She is currently researching bodily memory and craft through the marriage of human and botanical form. Utilizing the intertwining parallels between a plant's function and folklore with the history and markings of the human body, she invents a wholly new plant life as well as their written lore. Hoopingarner was born and raised in California. She received her Undergraduate degree in Studio Arts at UC Santa Cruz in 2016 and her Master’s Degree in Print Media at SAIC in 2020. Her print work has been archived in Special Collections at UCSC as well as the Chancellor's event of 2016. In addition, she attended the Mas Els Igols Artist Residency in Spain, was the visiting artist leading a community based print class through the Mingei Museum in San Diego, Ca, a recipient of the Professional Women’s Round Table Grant in California and the receiving artist for the Pritzker Fellowship.
