New York artist Elisabeth Meyer makes small, delicate prints that draw from a range of natural and architectural influences that are personal in nature, but easily translate into compositions in which "meaning must be extracted from the reading of images alone." Alongside her traditional works on paper, Meyer will exhibit larger, shaped plywood paintings that employ painting as well as printmaking techniques such as rubbing, chine colle, and stencil. Her finished pieces are dynamic explorations of "the contrast between the delicate and the clumsy." Meyer has been a visiting critic at Brown University and the Rhode Island School of Design and has exhibited her work throughout the United States and in Italy. She received her B.F.A. from the University of California-Berkley, and her M.F.A. from the University of Texas-Austin.
