Elyse Cote
Connecticut native Elyse Cote found her way to painting and ceramics by way of dance. She then completed a BFA at University of Hartford. Since then she has been a Resident Artist at the Wellsville Creative Art Center and taught ceramics at several local studios as well as The University of Hartford.
Elyse has shown her work in a number of juried shows as well as group exhibitions. Although she no longer dances she continues to bring that physicality to her delicate hand built objects and the painted canvas, combining the aesthetic of her choreography with faceted vessels and gestural abstraction.
