MICHI MEKO
Florence, Alabama, b. 1974
Resides in Atlanta, GA
​
Michi Meko is a multidisciplinary artist. His work draws influence from Southern culture and contemporary urban subcultures. He has developed a system of gathering that allows hybridizing and remixing content into a multilingual dialect that endows ordinary and rejected objects with historic and spiritual powers.
​
By reworking iconography, his artwork begins to establish a new identity alluding to conditions both physical and psychological in proclamation of perseverance and remembrance.
