Boardman has a BFA from Georgia State University and is currently
seeking her MFA from The School of Visual Arts in New York. She
has exhibited at the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, The Museum
of Contemporary Art of Georgia, and solo at Barbara Archer Gallery,
among others. For the past several years, Boardman has also worked
on many levels as an animator and lead animation coordinator for
a number of broadcast series on Cartoon Network and Comedy Central.
Boardman's two-dimensional and video works exploit a wide range
of mediums - including video and digital & handmade animation,
antique photographic and motion-picture technologies, oil, watercolor
and handsewn quilting - which intersect within individual projects
in surprising ways. Boardman's work explores sexual imagery and
identity, the sentimentality of space, and the rush of emotions
associated with "private" spaces - whether in the charged
intimacy of a bedroom or the transgression of physicality expressed.
Equally so, however, Boardman is driven by an omnivorous fascination
with her many varied working materials.
