merritt spangler

cv/statement

b. 1989. charlotte, nc.
— lives/works in lake tahoe, ca.

spangler’s artistic practice is driven by an insatiable need for extraordinary adventure and experiences, prioritizing them over mere invention. often working with a reduced color palette, her work minimizes visual pollution but is rich in allegory. her work is characteristically spontaneous in appearance, revealing mistakes and accidental marks as a way of engaging with imperfections. while favoring obscurity over clarity her works embody the complexities of perception.
