Eric National Mack (born 1987, Columbia, Maryland) is an American painter, multi-media installation artist, and sculptor, based in New York City.
Early life and education
Mack was born in Columbia, Maryland. He attended Suitland High School in Forestville Maryland for their well known CVPA(Center for Visual and Performing Arts) Program where he majored in Sculpture, Drawing, Painting, and Printmaking. His middle name is National, after Washington DC's National Gallery of Art—where his parents met. At an early age, Mack worked for his father at his discount clothing store interacting with a spectrum of fashions and fabrics. Mack's fabric collages often include a spectrum of materials such as moving blankets, bandanas, and other found or locally sourced fabrics.
Mack received his BFA from The Cooper Union in 2010 and his MFA from Yale in 2012. In a 2019 interview with Mahfuz Sultan for PIN-UP Magazine, he is quoted stating that he made most of his work outside while at Yale.
