Meet Michelle Melo, recent Artist in Residence at the Expressiones Gallery in New London, CT. Michelle was born and raised in Bogotá, Colombia, and has currently returned to her present home in New York City.
She received a BFA in Contemporary Sculpture at the National University of Colombia.
Michelle is positive and delightful and thoroughly enjoyed her stay the past 4 months. After meeting her, we were happy she was able to come to dinner one evening and share more about her life as a "multidisciplinary" artist, exploring many mediums such as Painting, Printmaking, Drawing and Textiles, incorporating hand and machine stitches.
We loved her concluding exhibition in which she featured her own Monotypes but also art from students of different ages whom she taught in the area schools as part of her residency program.
