Your Body Is My Canvas
Alexa Meade compresses 3-dimensional spaces into 2-dimensional planes in a fascinating series of painted installations
Artist Alexa Meade creates painted installations by painting on her subjects. Literally. She paints on surfaces of the human body, architectural spaces and found objects with a technique that compresses 3-dimensional spaces to 2-dimensional planes when photographed. The result is a fascinating mix of portraits and spaces that blur the lines between painting and reality.
