Melissa Zexter is a Brooklyn-based artist who creates embroidered photography.[1]

Early life and education

[edit]

Zexter grew up in Bristol, Rhode Island[2] in the Joseph Reynolds House and was given her first camera at the age of eight.[3] She received her BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. She earned her MFA in photography from New York University/International Center of Photography.[4] She teaches photography at the Dalton School in New York. She has previously taught at Alfred University, Cooper Union, Long Island University and The New School.[5]

Art

[edit]

Zexter began embroidering her photography following an artist's residency program in the Catskills.[6] Her works typically begin with her own digital or analogical photography,[7] to which she adds a layer of hand-stitched embroidery.[8] The overlaid embroidery pattern in her works fits the context of the scene's theme.[9] She uses various embroidery styles, "ranging from seemingly random stitches of different colors, to pattern-like stitches of single or complementing hues."[10] Zexter prefers to photograph women[6] and her themes include representations of femininity and the exploration of female identity.[11]

Zexter's works have been reviewed and published in The New York Times, The Boston Herald, Time Out Chicago, and The New Yorker.[12] She exhibited at the Bronx Museum of the Arts in 1994. She has also participated in exhibitions at the Muriel Guepin Gallery, Kenise Barnes Fine Art, Hallspace Gallery, Creiger Dane Gallery,[5] Robert Mann Gallery,[13] Triennale Design Museum,[14][15] and the Marcia Wood Gallery in Atlanta.[16]
