A fifth-generation Californian living on Ohlone land, Elizabeth Sims' work examines the intersection between the natural and cultural histories of the American West. Sims received her MFA from Claremont Graduate University in 2005. Her artwork is widely collected and has been exhibited in venues such as diRosa, Minnesota Street Projects, the California Governor's Mansion, and various galleries. She has published articles in X-tra Contemporary Art Quarterly, Art Practical, and been invited several times to contribute to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art’s online publications. Her artist talk, “Taking the Cure,” was published in the North American Review, received a Pushcart nomination, and was included in Best American Essays’ notable essays of 2020. Her essay, “A Ritual for the End of the World,” created during a 2023 fellowship at the Vermont Studio Center, will be published in the spring 2025 issue of Ploughshares.
