Elisa Dore is a visual artist from Atlanta, Georgia. Her practice, rooted in printmaking, functions as a record of personal and ancestral histories and how place informs constructions of identity. In an attempt to physically manifest amorphous concepts of identity, culture, or memories, an image carved into wood or etched into stone offers a tangible answer. Her practice addresses interstitial ways of being that are often untranslatable to words.
Her work has been shown nationally and internationally, including at the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art, Highpoint Center for Printmaking, the Hall of Awa Japanese Handmade Paper, and Pública (San Juan, Puerto Rico). She is a recipient of the Ernest G. Welch Fellowship and graduated with an MFA in printmaking from Georgia State University in 2026. She currently lives and works in Atlanta.
