Tricia Treacy is a Lecturer in Fine Arts at Penn Design, University of Pennsylvania, specializing in the integration of digital and analog methods within book arts, graphic design, and printmaking. Her academic role encompasses teaching courses in graphic design, book arts, and printmaking while maintaining an active studio practice.
Her research centers on experimental typography and historic printing processes, particularly through the 'Vista Sans wood type' collaboration which examines how contemporary digital typefaces function within traditional letterpress frameworks. This work explores the conceptual tensions between computer-aided design and wood-based production technologies.
Treacy exhibits nationally and internationally with artist books in major collections, and maintains active involvement with the College Book Art Association (CBAA) as both featured artist and conference participant. Her pedagogical approach emphasizes technical experimentation and cross-medium exploration in fine arts education.
