Meet Liani Foster

Liani Foster is a graphic designer and photographer whose work emphasizes the exploration of technology and the use of organic materials. A BFA graduate (1974) majoring in graphic design with a minor in photography, he has received prestigious grants including a National Endowment Grant (1996) and an ASC Regional Artist Project Grant (2018). Foster has collaborated on major public art projects, including commissions for Cooper Cary Architectural Firm and initiatives like the 50th D-Day Anniversary Quilt Project. His work has been exhibited widely, including at Art Basel Miami, the DC Convention Center, and internationally in Ghana and Brazil. Foster’s art celebrates nature’s textures and indigenous craftsmanship, blending diverse materials into sensory-rich compositions.


"My work represents my love for nature’s organic brilliance. Textures suffuse hues woven forms from diverse resources. I particularly invest my interest in seeking raw, milled, or disregarded materials for mix use, honoring indigenous artisans' . Their vision form follows function ensures all materials/matter as having value. I approach all possibilities from a sensory pallet. However, on more than one occasion I’ve let time mature my creative interest. My benefit/my favor is that I am a part of nature’s kinetic harmony."
