Monique Luck | The Coolest | Episode #105
Manage episode 419823130 series 3412061
THG speaks with Monique Luck, an international award-winning artist and muralist. Monique's artwork is a beautiful blend of soulful, textured, and emotional figures that tell lyrical stories across the canvas. Her unique technique involves modeling features of figures and natural forms using fragments of found paper in a collage style with many layers. Monique has exhibited her work at several prestigious galleries and museums across the US, including The African American Museum of Dallas, The South Carolina State Museum, and the Heinz History Center Museum in Pittsburgh. Her work as a public muralist with the Sprout Fund is featured in the PBS Documentary, “It’s the Neighborhoods.” Her most recent project, "Hope Springs Forth Brightly", is a large public art installation for the city of Asheville, NC, in collaboration with local artists and community members for the Celebrating African Americans Through Public Art Project. Monique's public art installation, "Welcoming Dreams," in Charlotte can be viewed at the Renaissance West Community Initiative. Her artwork can also be found at the Harvey B. Gantt Center Museum in Charlotte. She is truly an exceptional artist whose work is both inspiring and thought-provoking. We are honored to have her on the podcast today to share her journey and insights with our listeners.
THG Season 5 Intro Drops as of 10/20/24.
