Delaney Peppito 

I am a printmaker and visual artist who graduated from Louisiana State University, whose work centers on reclaiming voice through a process of trauma negotiation and rewriting what was taken from me. Through printmaking, I engage with memory, the body, and the lingering presence of violence—both visible and invisible—using the physicality of the press, layered ink, and ghostly residue to explore survival, resilience, and the weight of lived experience. I am drawn to the fragility of images and their potential for distortion, concealment, and reinterpretation, reflecting how trauma imprints itself and returns altered yet persistent. Influenced by the Uncanny and Art Horror, my work inhabits the space between personal history and social consciousness, where vulnerability and conflict coexist, and the familiar becomes unsettling. Rather than recreating suffering, my prints affirm presence by elevating the unseen and making space for pain, thought, and understanding. Each piece stands as a negotiation between past and present—proof of survival and a reminder that both art and healing are ongoing, lifelong processes.
