Mixed Media Artist Alexa Meade

Alexa Meade is a mixed media artist best known for her portraits painted on the human body and set against painted backgrounds. She takes a classical concept — trompe l’oeil, the art of making a two-dimensional representation look three-dimensional—and works in an opposite direction. Meade's aim is to collapse depth and make her living models into flat pictures. The result is walking, talking optical illusions, and 3D paintings that confuse how the eye processes objects in space. #art #artist #artinstallation #installationart #artwork #bodyart #bodyartist #bodypainting #paint #painter #painting #mixedmedia #mixedmediaart #mixedmediaartist #portraitpainting #portraits #artnomatterwhichone #moltenimmersiveart #artistheanswer #artmatters #artandculture #artsandculture #dorothydistefano
