Layna Hayes is a creative based in Memphis, Tennessee.

She is an artist, designer, musician, creator, and DJ at WYXR 91.7 FM in Memphis, TN. Driven by formal elements and her love of craft, her artwork embodies playful compositions of vibrant color, repetitive pattern, and recurring shapes. She works with processes such as screen printing, weaving, tufting, painting, and collage. Within her work, she navigates meaningful personal topics through a curious and colorful lens. She is especially drawn to fibers and found materials because they allow her to explore unique realms of texture untouched by other media. Using fiber and found materials, she develops extremely tactile works that simultaneously flatten space. Her work is intuitive and instinctive and she is inspired by child-like playfulness and humor.
