Megan Hinton

Megan Hinton is a painter known for reconfiguring genres of landscape, figurative, and object painting.  Her art utilizes appropriation from painting’s history along with found and discarded material to investigate line, color, shape, surface, and scale. This fusion of subject and formalism spans further to her work in collage, sculpture, installation, photography, and performance.  Megan holds an MFA in Interdisciplinary arts from Mills College in Oakland, California where she won the Hung Lui Painting Prize.  Megan is also an art educator, curator, and writer.
