Artist of the Week: Megan Geckler

A native of Los Angeles, artist Megan Geckler masters the technique of installation art. Colorful patterns fabricated through three-dimensional techniques capture life within each one of her pieces.

The vibrancy in the materials that she uses captivates viewers, especially when combined with the intricate patterns that she creates. By using thousands of strands of flagging tape that combine into a plastic ribbon, Geckler is able to create pieces that really do stand out from the crowd.

"There is an inherent immediacy in the materials that I use, and in the manner in which they are crafted is obvious and deliberate," Geckler says in the About section of her website. "Generally, a gesture is repeated over and over until the area is completed."
