Mixed Media: An Exploration of Instinct

June 27 at 05:30 pm until 08:30 pm

Artist Meghan Stevens builds her surfaces using paper and paint, forming unexpected shapes and contrasts through collage. Her densely rich textures, colors, and patterns submit to bold, precise forms layered and painted in black and white. Stevens works primarily in painting, printmaking, and collage, but always seeks out new physical media to incorporate into her work. She has exhibited in various galleries and non-traditional spaces throughout Omaha and incorporates influences from travel, film and street art, intended and accidental.
