Star Trauth is an award-winning artist, activist, writer, spokesperson, documentary voiceover, mom, and most recently, a creative voice for the cancer experience. She received her degree in Fine Art(Mt St Joseph University, Ohio, USA) and continues to study related to her field.


Trauth considers art her primary career and passion and states, “The rest has branched from that tree.”


Her art practice seeks to attract the audience visually with a desire for tactile engagement. She’s sought to create new art mediums with environmentalism in mind. Her newest body of art uses waste paper and plastic, and converting it to a flat pliable textile. Star hand molds and flame sculpts each piece, miniature original works in their own right, then melds them as free-standing sculpture, assemblage, or wall hanging. Though she has created her own medium Trauth will use other forms of traditional media to achieve her vision. Her work is heavily inspired by music, experiences from her adventurous life, and currently a fierce battle with cancer. This has also led her to dabble in new media while she regains her strength.


Curated into over 100 exhibitions, including 22 museums in the last 10 years. Most recently she has a heartfelt and provocative written piece in Yoko Ono’s ‘Arising’ at the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo, Norway.
