Larysa Myers
Bio
Larysa Myers studied drawing and painting at Grand Central Academy and textile design at Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, developing a love for classical drawing methods and pattern making. After leaving the city and moving to Beacon, NY she started a family and began a new body of work focusing on drawing. Myers explores her personal history through the universal and the cyclical, the mythological and the contemporary. Her work often reflects on ideals of motherhood or femininity and its dualities. Settings are domestic, wild, mundane and fantastical, each opening into different parts of the psyche and identity. Recent exhibitions include in “Charta” at the Fortnight Institute Salon (2022), “I Walk Through Walls” on MePaintsMe (2022), “Night Scenes” at Tiger Strikes Asteroid, New York, NY (2021), and “Soft Temple” at Mother Gallery, Beacon, NY (2019). Her work has been featured in Maake Magazine and ArtMaze Mag.
