Eliza McKenna is an artist, mystic, and educator based in the mountains of Colorado. Working across photography, writing, and experimental materials, she explores grief, memory, consciousness, and the image’s potential to uncover thoughts, feelings, unconscious beliefs, and our connection to the Divine.

Drawing from Buddhism, philosophy, and mystical traditions, Eliza’s work investigates perception, presence, and what remains beyond the physical world. Photography often serves as a point of departure, leading her into layered surfaces, objects, and text that invite viewers to bring their own awareness to the image.

Eliza holds a BA in Film Studies from Wesleyan University and an MFA in Photography from Pratt Institute.
