Spencer Evans

Associate Professor

Spencer Evans is a figurative draftsman, painter and sculptor who aims to tell detailed stories by using the imagery of specific moments. The intent of his work is to study and highlight the relationship between the inner and outer self in context with the environment that created it. He often uses a combination of representation, abstraction and various mark-making techniques to depict his visual interpretation of the feeling of tension that occurs during the transfer of internal emotion into outward behavior/expression.

Evans was born in Houston, TX and earned his BFA in drawing and painting from the University of Missouri and his MFA in intermedia from the University of Texas at Arlington. He is living and working in Providence, RI. As the lead designer for The Pedestal Project, Evans is a three-time Webby Award winner, two-time Cannes Lion Award winner, two-time Design & Art Direction winner, two-time ADC Gold Award winner and a Campaign Media Power of Purpose Gold Award winner.
