Grace DuVal (she/her) is an internationally exhibited Wearable Artist, Designer, and Photographer based in Boston, USA. She received a Masters of Design and Post Baccalaureate Certificate in Fashion, Body, and Garment from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, as well as a Bachelors of Fine Art in Sculpture + Extended Media from VCUarts.

DuVal’s work moves freely between garment, photography, performance, and collaboration — combining a lifelong career as a photographer with her degrees in sculpture and fashion to create otherworldly garments and visual experiences. The resulting pieces are large and sculptural, transforming the body into something unrecognizable and otherworldly. DuVal collectively creates larger-than-life site-specific installations, performances, and photo shoots with fellow artists and performers, using her garments to generate breathtaking still and moving imagery.

Her work has been exhibited globally, most recently at World of WearableArt in Wellington, NZ where she was awarded the Supreme Award for her garment Curves Ahead in 2024. She has collaborated on projects with Disney, Hot Topic, and Her Universe, and has had her designs featured by Rolling Stone, The Atlantic, Mazda, Paper Magazine, Bustle, Jezebel, and beyond. 

 

Grace currently works independently as a designer, maker, and photographer in her Boston studio.
