This week on My Modern Met's Top Artist Podcast, we talk with artist Alexa Meade. Known for her innovative work where she paints the human body and three-dimensional spaces to create an illusion of a two-dimensional painting, Meade has been a working artist for over a decade. Her work has led her to collaborations with major brands and musicians like Ariana Grande, whom she painted for the God is a Woman music video.
We had the pleasure of sitting down with Alexa to learn more about her early life—which included work in politics—and how she followed her instincts to pursue a career in the arts. In this episode, we also learn what inspired her unique technique and hear about how she created a team to help her execute her vision.
In addition to her lustrous career thus far, Alexa has recently held a successful NFT auction of her artwork and we take a dive into this new trend, getting an artist's perspective on how crypto art is empowering creatives like herself.
