About

Breanna "Bree" Stallings is North Carolina-native multi-media artist, illustrator, writer and activist.

Bree graduated from Queens University of Charlotte in 2013 with a Bachelor Degree in Studio Art and Creative Writing. She resides near uptown Charlotte where she creates work as a large-scale installation and public mural artist.

Using art as her vehicle, she raises awareness for many causes that affect her life and those closest to her such as economic mobility, displacement, and environmental consciousness.

Through the programs, curated art shows and fundraisers she has helped put on, Bree, alongside her creative team and partnerships with Blumenthal Performing Arts Center, Project Art Aid, Behailu Academy, the Mecklenburg County Health Department, and many more have helped raised over $2,000,000 for furthering development in Charlotte's art and humanities scene.

In recent news, her partnership with the Mecklenburg County Health Department and students at Behailu Academy have provided the opportunity for 2 large-scale public art murals in designated "food deserts" to highlight the pressing issue of food insecurity in our communities. She is also an HATCH Intensive Training Cohort Fellow as sponsored by C4 Atlanta, Artist As Change Agent Fellow of 2019 as sponsored by EmcArts, Artists Campaign School of 2017 (Detroit, MI) Fellow as sponsored by Fractured Atlas, the 2018 GOLD Alumni Award Winner from Queens University of Charlotte and the 2017 Outstanding Leader In The Arts Award Winner from The Arts Empowerment Project.

Does this count, @squashblossomsocial? Making a re Does this count, @squashblossomsocial? Making a reel and being in hurry-capture-while-cute mode is the antithesis of my creative flow, but hey, I’m grateful to show to my work to so many followers. I had the realization the other day that I have as many followers to fill up our largest venue, the Belk Theater, twice. That’s wild to think about that I have two theaters full of people interested in what I do. Thanks for being along for the ride, y’all. 🥹
"I Can Make It Right" is a piece about using the p "I Can Make It Right" is a piece about using the power of paint to create things that don't exist. I long for experiences I can never have, where I can hang out and form memories with my mom and my grandmother at my age now. Above me is my mom at her current age, who is happily also benefitting from this magic moment. I so desperately wish I could know them as women, not through my child eyes, and exchange joy and advice. It would heal and nourish us then and now, as depicted by the two (R)obins (my mom's name and the two birds, one feeding and one crying for food). In this crafted memory, we are sharing a laugh after my grandmother puts something (a funny, sparkly hat) on her head. We can have these tender moments despite their hard lives. By painting it, I can make it right.

“Flight or Flight Mode” is about the fear I’ “Flight or Flight Mode” is about the fear I’ve been stuck in for the last chapter of my life. Animals lash out in fear, and seem flighty or violent but are really just wounded (broken wing/bloody tooth). It’s about how coping mechanisms can become character flaws. It’s about missing home but not being sure where home is.
