About

Day is a  multidisciplinary artist working across painting, sculpture, and illustration from dual studios in Samara, Costa Rica and Bridgeport, Connecticut. Holding a BFA in Art and a practice rooted in decades of sustained inquiry, Moore occupies a compelling position at the intersection of aesthetics and environmental ethics.

Her material vocabulary — oil paint, watercolor inks, and site-sourced natural elements — is inseparable from her conceptual concerns. Moore identifies as an artivist, and her work functions as both lyrical meditation and cultural critique, interrogating humanity’s relationship to the natural world at a moment of profound ecological precarity.

Alongside her studio work, Moore creates ephemeral installations — sculptures and murals constructed from organic materials and surrendered, by design, to wind and tide. Executed in solitude and in community-collaborative contexts alike, these vanishing works engage questions of impermanence, entropy, and collective responsibility. The dissolution is the statement.

Her canvases and drawings extend this investigation — the ocean rendered not merely as subject, but as index of what remains and what we stand to lose. Moore’s practice resists the decorative, insisting instead that beauty carries an obligation.

Day donates a percentage of each painting sold to The Captain Paul Watson Foundation, whose mission is to end the destruction of habitat and slaughter of wildlife in the world’s oceans in order to conserve and protect ecosystems and species.
