Greg J. Hayes is a visual artist committed to building a more complex photographic idea. His art practice, based on the idea that art making is a way of thinking, engages questions about the conditions of perception, and insistently investigates the resonance of time and experience. His conceptual goals largely determine the form of his artwork, thus he has incorporated drawing, text and sculpture into a mostly photographic practice.

After an undergraduate degree from Northeastern University and a year of study at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Greg received his MFA from California Institute of the Arts in Los Angeles. His work was recently included in "second nature: abstract photography then and now," at the deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum. Greg spent this past summer teaching and working in South Dakota, Samoa and New Zealand, and has been invited to return to the South Pacific in May for a residency at Artspace in Sydney, Australia.

Greg lives and works in New York and Boston, and is an artist-teacher with the Vermont College of Fine Arts.
