Award-winning Installation Artist Alexa Meade to visit NA studios

Alexa Meade, an award-winning California-based artist, will present her innovative painting process to Newark Academy visual arts students on October 15.
 
Alexa applies paint to the human body and three-dimensional spaces to create the illusion that our reality is a two-dimensional painted dreamscape. Her unique approach has gained worldwide acclaim and her ability to move between dimensions has fascinating people across disciplines. She has collaborated with space-time researchers at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, created illusions with the world-renowned magician David Blaine, and painted on the body of pop star Ariana Grande for her iconic “God is Woman” music video. Alexa’s inspiring TEDGlobal talk entitled, Your Body is my Canvas, has been viewed millions of times.
Alexa’s short film Color of Reality won the “Disruptive Innovation Award” at the Tribeca Film Festival and she has been invited to the Obama White House. She has lectured extensively at universities including Stanford, UC Berkley and NYU and at such corporations including Apple, Google, Adobe, Facebook and National Geographic.
