Melissa Marks describes her “drawn mark” as a “mutable abstraction, linear catalyst and fantasy instigator.” In her words, “every drawing I make is a diagram of a core-shaking internal disruption, an interior landscape made visible, a picture of a self in a constant state of remaking.”

Marks received her Bachelor of Arts from Wesleyan University and her Masters of Fine Arts from Yale University. She has held solo exhibitions at the Bloomberg Space, London; Nicole Klagsbrun Gallery, NY; Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art, CT and Joya: arte + ecología, Cortijada Los Gazquez, Spain. Her work has also been included in exhibitions at PS1/Moma, NY; Artspace, CT and The Drawing Center, NY.
