Brittainy Lauback is an American photographer and educator, born in 1978. She received her BFA from the University of New Mexico and her MFA from the University of Georgia. She lived and worked in Houston, Texas, and now works in Athens, Georgia.
Her work sits between tragedy and comedy, looking at mortality, sexuality and the playful absurdity of everyday life. Her first monograph, Infinite Bonheur (Fall Line Press, 2024), brings her photographs together as one book rather than separate projects, mixing street photography, staged encounters and typologies such as women who own snakes.
Her work has been shown at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, the Georgia Museum of Art, the Bo Bartlett Center and the LaGrange Art Museum.
