Durrett (b. 1994) is a Chicago-born architect and abstract figurative artist based in Central Florida. Working across mixed-media painting and sculpture, her practice explores identity, lineage, and psychological healing within the Black diaspora. Grounded in her training in architecture, where she earned a Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Arizona, Durrett approaches each surface as a constructed space shaped by memory, movement, and lived experience.

In 2022, painting became central to her practice as a means of recovery and self-reconstruction following an eight-year abusive relationship. Since then, her work has focused on repair, using the figure, continuous contour linework, and natural materials, to explore how connection, care, and resilience are rebuilt after rupture. Her work often centers the head and neck as sites of memory, emotion, and identity, informed by research into Black psychology and embodied experience.

Durrett’s work has been exhibited nationally, including at the Museum of Science and Industry Chicago, Orlando Museum of Art, Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, the Mint Museum, Art Basel Miami, and EXPO Chicago. Her work has been featured in 1919 Mag, Blacque, Sugarcane Magazine, and the Orlando Foundation for Architecture archives.
