Cyra Jane is a multi-media wielding powerhouse known best for her surreal stone carvings and large-scale community installations. Her work walks an edge between psychoanalysis and magical reality, that sweeps the viewer into a profound emotional response and, sometimes, psychological growth.  A voracious creator and collector of skills, she has been a painter, blacksmith, installation artist, book designer, writer, singer, curator, and sculptress.

While her formal education was in Professional and Technical Writing, Cyra has pursued consistent training in the visual arts while developing her unique voice. She has been the recipient of a number of grants through Ignition Northwest, 4Culture and a scholarship to Pratt Fine Arts Center.  Cyra has held residencies with the James Washington Foundation in Seattle in 2010 and Studiostone in Vancouver, B.C. in 2016.

Passionate about the intersection between art and community, Cyra always seems to find herself working to create and maintain artistic communities. She spent many years volunteering as an installation artist for Burning Man with a blacksmithing collective and for the regional burn event as the Burn Engineer, Event Producer, and an installation artist, managing a crew that built her own designs. She has for six years now been the Director of the International Stone Carving Symposium held in Washington and is a proud young leader in that vibrant community. Recently, she opened a group stone carving studio in Georgetown, WA.
