Andy Behrle lives in Waimea on Hawai'i Island. He was raised in a suburb of Boston, Massachusetts, and has made homes in Phoenix, Arizona; Birmingham, Alabama; and rural Washington state before settling in the Hawaiian Islands in 2018. Each place has altered how he sees the world and creates art. Behrle received his Master of Fine Arts in Sculpture at Arizona State University in 2003. Over the last decade, he has opened twelve solo exhibitions while also creating site-specific light and digital video installations for galleries, public art venues, universities, museums, and international light art festivals.
