Isabella Rae is a painter based in New York City.
She studied Fine Arts at the School of Visual Arts in NYC and received her BFA in 2022.
Her work explores the ‘trace’: capturing the lingering presence of unseen people who have passed through a space - both domestic and public.
Her studio is located in Manhattan, and is open to visits by appointment.
